+	* configure.ac: New command-line option --disable-crypt.
+	Force --disable-nss-crypt when --disable-crypt is given, with a
+	warning if it was explicitly enabled.
+	* configure: Regenerate.
+	* config.make.in: New boolean substitution variable $(build-crypt).
+	* Makeconfig: Only include 'crypt' in all-subdirs and rpath-dirs
+	when $(build-crypt).
+	* manual/install.texi: Document --disable-crypt.
+	* INSTALL: Regenerate.
+
+	* crypt/Makefile: Remove code conditional on $(crypt-in-libc),
+	which is never set.
+	* conform/Makefile: Only include libcrypt.a in
+	linknamespace-libs-xsi and linknamespace-libs-XPG4
+	when $(build-crypt).
+	* elf/Makefile (CFLAGS-tst-linkall-static.c): Only define
+	USE_CRYPT to 1 when $(build-crypt).
+	(tst-linkall-static): Only link libcrypt.a when $(build-crypt).
+	(localplt-built-dso): Only add libcrypt.so when $(build-crypt).

+* We have tentative plans to hand off maintenance of the passphrase-hashing
+  library, libcrypt, to a separate development project that will, we hope,
+  keep up better with new passphrase-hashing algorithms.  We will continue
+  to declare 'crypt' in <unistd.h>, and programs that use 'crypt' or
+  'crypt_r' should not need to change at all; however, distributions will
+  need to install <crypt.h> and libcrypt from a separate project.
+
+  In this release, if the configure option --disable-crypt is used, glibc
+  will not install <crypt.h> or libcrypt, making room for the separate
+  project's versions of these files.  The plan is to make this the default
