GDM doesn't support passwords > 32 characters. I know at least MD5 allows
passwords of 127 characters, so this could be a problem. The attached patch
solves the problem, by allowing up to 128 characters for all PAM requests
after the initial request (which is left at the old value of 32).
Any chance of a beta5 or a pre-beta5 making it to CVS soon?
