Bug in AIX password expiry code in 4.0p1

[Darren Tucker]

Hi all.

	There's a bug in sshd in the handling of the password expiry messages 
returned by AIX's authentication routines, which will cause sshd to 
segfault after password authentication if the user's password has expired 
or is about to expire.  It was originally reported by Rob v.d. Wal.  It 
doesn't affect any other platforms.

	I recommend that anyone deploying 4.0p1 on AIX systems apply the patch in 
the following bug, or wait for the 4.1p1 release (which will be some time 
in the next couple of weeks).  My apologies for any inconvenience caused.
