Bug 128235

Description of problem:
I built a simple test program on i386 that calls FascistCheck in
libcrack. When I copy it over to an ia64 box and run it, it reports:

% ./libcrack testing ate2much
Checking password: 'testing'
/usr/lib/cracklib_dict: size mismatch
PWOpen: Success

I don't know about common practice calling this function, but crack.h
comments lead me to hardcode "/usr/lib/cracklib_dict" to pass in. It
seems most likely to me that the 64-bit version of cracklib uses a
different dictionary format, and when the 32-bit version uses it, it
fails.

I just tried installing cracklib-dicts.i386, and now it works. But
then presumably the 64-bit one won't. (I'll check). Maybe the 32-bit
dict should be installed under /emul, and some magic performed? It
seems like including cracklib.i386 w/o cracklib-dicts.i386 is useless
though.
