Yes, but there should be something stronger.
How about moving ./contrib/slapd-modules/passwd/pbkdf2 to core?
Yeah at this point we can probably bypass SHA2 and just go straight to
SHA3. There's a lot of crypto software out there already using it. pbkdf2
is still using SHA2.
Worthwhile to read over:

Hm, where did these recommendations come from? They include Scrypt among their
recommendations, but there are Scrypt ASICs all over the web already making it
trivially hackable.
e.g. http://zoomhash.com/ (just google "scrypt asic" ...)
libsodium's a pretty trivial compile, I added it to Zimbra a while back for
another project.
