--- Comment #3 from Florian Weimer <fweimer at redhat dot com> ---
We are going to support building glibc for use with an external libcrypt.  Zack
Weinberg has posted patches:

https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-05/msg00690.html

The external libcrypt can then implement whatever policies it wants, and
develop at a pace that is independent from glibc.
