>Description:
I'm using databases/db port to examine user passwords from the sasldb database of the security/sasl2 port. This database is in hash(3) format, consists of 2 fields, user and password.

>From the version 1.14 this ports starts to "eat" last symbol (it does not display it when invoked) of the password, so I need now to manually downgrade and use the 1.11 version.

This problem is repeatable on multiple machines running freebsd versions 7.x/6.x where I am using cyrus-sasl and databases/db.

I wasn't sure which port this problem belongs to, but since the downgrading to 1.11 helps, and since I am using multiple releases on cyrus-sasl2 port and all of them are affected, and, in the same time, 1.11 works everywhere, I decided to post here.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install databases/db and security/cyrus-sasl2, create some users with `saslpasswd2` program and use `db hash /usr/local/etc/sasldb2` command to display created user/passwords pairs.
