This is not acceptable.  You are breaking existing systems, for example,
the *.freebsd.org cluster.

I have formally complained to re@ about this MFC.

If you are going to do this, do it right.  Put a #if 0 around the fallback
code that looks up the plaintext passwords or something.  Do not screw up
the whole tool.  Even more inexcusable is that you are clobbering a working
/usr/bin/k5su with a non-working one.

Cheers,
