I made a mistake.  That version actually worked before I modified it.
The test is a bit different in version 1.1.1-4ubuntu2, so it looks like
this got fixed in the natty version.  In the Maverick version the test
is:

if (on(UNIX_HASH_MASK,ctrl))

It looks like you tried to fix this once before and it didn't make it.
In the change log you have:

  * debian/patches/007_modules_pam_unix: recognize that *all* of the password
    hashes other than traditional crypt handle passwords >8 chars in length.
    LP: #356766.

This is under version 1.1.1-1, however the actual fix appears to not
have landed until 1.1.2-1.

Duping this bug against the other one and leaving it marked as fixed
since it has been, just not in the rev where it was said to have been.
