this man page is mostly about password hashing now (you really don't

want to be using DES) and some of the notes about the export controls
are no longer so relevant. ok deraadt jmc

This library (FreeSec 1.0) was developed outside the United States of America
as an unencumbered replacement for the U.S.-only libcrypt encryption
library.
Programs linked against the
.Fn crypt
interface may be exported from the U.S.A. only if they use
.Fn crypt
solely for authentication purposes and avoid use of
the other programmer interfaces listed above.
Special care has been taken
in the library so that programs which only use the
.Fn crypt
interface do not pull in the other components.
