 If you have either the source or a library that contains des_fcrypt(),
-enable the appropriate option in the makefile.  des_fcrypt() is not
-bundled with the distribution due to US Government restrictions
-on the export of cryptographic software.  Nevertheless, this routine
-is part of the "libdes" library (written by Eric Young) which is widely
-available worldwide, usually along with SSLeay ( for example, 
-ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/crypt/mirrors/dsi/libdes/ ).  Set CRYPT_SRC to the
-name of the file that implements des_fcrypt().  Alternatively, if
-you have built a library that contains des_fcrypt(), you can set
-CRYPT_LIB to point to the library name.  The location above contains
-many versions of the "libdes" library, all with slightly different
-implementations of des_fcrypt().  Older versions have a single,
-self-contained file (fcrypt.c) that implements crypt(), so they may be
-easier to use.  A patch against the fcrypt.c found in libdes-3.06 is
-in des_fcrypt.patch.

-An easier alternative may be to get the pre-patched and ready-to-use
-fcrypt.c that can be found here:

+of fcrypt.c, based on the version originally written by Eric Young at
+ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/crypt/mirrors/dsi/libdes/, is bundled with the

 Perl will also build without des_fcrypt(), but the crypt() builtin will
 fail at run time.
