Also, MD5 is not ideal for passwords. Seems the standard unix-style
password crypting is the standard, so it should be used to crypt our own
passwords in pg_shadow. I am sure someone would find some problem with
us using md5 for password storage.
We already use the unix-style password crypt to send passwords over the
wire. Why not use it for storage too?
