Hey, i have the same comments, but I don't get the same result.
If I compile with cc I get:
	XX0/imINzSUs.
If I compile with gcc I get:
	XX3FF./IFI/II

I guess that means that I have the modified version, but whoever
modified it did not leave any comments about it.

Does anyone know what modifications have been done?
For different reasons i had to replace the login program.
Unfortunately the original (Xenix) login program is using another
encryption algorithm (maybe the original DES?), so now some utilities
does not work. Like su, single-user-login, passwd, etc. And I don't
have sources for those programs. 

Of course that increases the safety -- you cannot "su root" any more :-)
