I assume SHA256 (5) was chosen over SHA512 (6) because SHA256 is more widely 
available on other UNIX/Linux systems. True?

src/util/distro-import/Makefile.sdiff.html
 263         '/^root/{ print 
"root:$5$VgppCOxA$ycFmYW4ObRRHhtsGEygDdexk5bugqgSiaSR9niNCouC:14146::::::";continue}
 {print $$0}') > $@

I may be paranoid, but I would feel more comfortable if the pattern on line 263 
was changed from /^root/ to /^root:/
This would prevent matching with accounts that start with root, although I 
realize that probably won't happen when modifying a default /etc/shadow file.

The rest LGTM.
