There is no _listed committers_ ;-)  I was hoping either you as the original
author of the patch or Martin as the area expert would respond, but as
long as the result looks correct and explained well, it doesn't matter
either way.

Just one hopefully final question.

After stripping "/<version number><space>" from the beginning of the line
in order to treat newer .cvspass file format and the original file format
the same way, the code splits the remainder into two fields (cvsroot and
lightly-scrambled password).  It used to split only at a whitespace, which
seems to be in line with the source of CVS 1.12.13 I looked at (it is in
password_entry_parseline() function, src/login.c).  You new code however
also allows '=' to be a delimiter to be used for this split.

Is this change intentional?  If so please explain why it is necessary in
the commit log message.
