--- Comment #6 from Dmitry V. Levin <ldv at sourceware dot org> ---
"Basically, Ulrich only wanted to solve a particular problem, namely building
upon NIST-approved crypto, and so he introduced SHA-crypt, thereby solving the
problem.  bcrypt is unrelated to that problem, so it didn't get in, and its
OpenBSD origin didn't help either.

Now that Ulrich is no longer involved, things may be different."
