The described vulnerability is probably not really a serious problem.
It affects only the htpasswd utility and thus a local user to exploit 
it. It is not set-uid.
Many sites don't have any (unstrusted) local users and it can not be 
exploited by an http request.

If you worry about this, you can delete it (But only if you don't need 
to change passwords).
