The fix to this problem is to not use crypt at all. crypt is sort of unix specific, which this day and age basicaly means non-windows specific, and in my world windows is the minority legacy operating system, but I suppose that's not true for everyone.
So I've just made a change to the tiddlyweb code to store passwords as a sha hex digest instead of with crypt. Crypt was used for sake of simplicity but that turns out not to be simple. I'll commit this code and release a new version to the usual places.
