there are still some discussions going on about tweaking the code, but
at least thing brings us to the point of having something working in
the repository. hopefully the remaining major hashes (md5,sha) will
follow soon.

some minor changes to how hard-coded sets for thread-related purposes
are handled were also needed, since the old object sizes were not
necessarily sufficient. things have gotten a bit ugly in this area,
and i think a cleanup is in order at some point, but for now the goal
is just to get the code working on all supported archs including mips,
which was badly broken by linux rejecting syscalls with the wrong
sigset_t size.

yet another gratuitous mips incompatibility...

unfortunately, a large portion of programs which call crypt are not
prepared for its failure and do not check that the return value is
non-null before using it. thus, always "succeeding" but giving an
unmatchable hash is reportedly a better behavior than failing on
error.
it was suggested that we could do this the same way as other
implementations and put the null-to-unmatchable translation in the
wrapper rather than the individual crypt modules like crypt_des, but
when i tried to do it, i found it was making the logic in __crypt_r
for keeping track of which hash type we're working with and whether it
succeeded or failed much more complex, and potentially error-prone.
the way i'm doing it now seems to have essentially zero cost, anyway.

untested; hopefully it's right now
