Is there any standard or canonical documentation on how shadow
passwords should work?

I know. Should be fixed.

which dies of EPIPE, when attempting to write to its stdout. Is that
correct? I think the first target to look closer at is the use of
shutdown(). Either lsh, your shutdown(), or the code to workaround the
shutdown() bug in linux-2.0.33, may be broken.

I'm currently using a SparcStation 5 running sparc-linux, redhat-5.1,
kernel 2.0.33.
