Unable to set root's password during install of FreeBSD-10.0-CURRENT-i386-20130601-r251213-release.iso

[Trond Endrestøl]

Hi,

I'm unable to get past the rootpass step using the 
FreeBSD-10.0-CURRENT-i386-20130601-r251213-release.iso snapshot.

The error message:

passwd: pam_chauthtok(): error in service module

is briefly shown, leaving behind a core file named /pwd_mkdb.core. 

pwd_mkdb does not contain any debugging symbols and this makes it a 
bit hard to guess what went wrong. Anyway, here's the backtrace as 
provided by gdb:

Has anyone else tried recently to change user passwords on -CURRENT?
