I am sorry to say, noone to blame, but that piece of code that is
supposed to do that didn't worked either in 6.4.x or in 6.5 beta x.
As I recall, I checked every version against lcrypt including in linking
but no version worked fine (at least for my RedHat 5.x servers).

But it ain't such a big problem. As Tom said, just adding -lcrypt to
SHLIB_LINK solve the problem.
PostgreSQL 6.5 is such a great thing so you can pass over those minor
problems!
