checkpassword is being run as root (from inetd for testing
purposes). As it turns out, the problem I was having was all
related to atdot, not checkpassword. However, testing checkpassword
per the INSTALL instructions does not work unless you are root (duh).
I guess it should say that in the instructions for brain dead people
like me (it was Friday and I wanted to go home :)).

p.s.,
This still does not solve the original poster's problem.
