    Old clients send null-terminated string as password; new clients send

    the size (1 byte) + string (not null-terminated). Hence in case of empty

    password both send '\0'.

    Cast *passwd to an unsigned char, so that it doesn't extend the sign for

    *passwd > 127 and become 2**32-127 after casting to uint.
