Ross, Felix, David, thanks for the feedback.

At least the key derivation function isn't as bad as I feared. It might
not be standardized but it isn't obviously bad.

An update to warn about a password that contains non-cp1252 characters
feels appropriate to me. (Refusing to use non-cp1252 characters less so,
but I don't feel strongly about this.)

If one of you does prepare a patch to address this, please do coordinate
with the Debian maintainer -- if Debian is the closest there is to
upstream, it'd be best to get the patch as high as possible.

Thanks
