Hi, In June tedu@ committed [0] a diff to move login.conf to use auto rounds for bcrypt on amd64, sparc64, i386 and macppc.
Here's a diff to update the man pages. Currently the man pages are outdated on these four architectures but I guess it's still right for other (old) architectures. After this diff, man page on these four architectures will be up to date, but on others it will be wrong (as they're still using 8 rounds). Is it possible to have different man pages for different architectures or am I missing something?
