Description Ondrej Holy 2013-07-03 17:00:45 UTC 
Description of problem: Empty username is threated as valid when comparing the username with password to check that the password doesn't contain the username.


Actual results: The password_check function fails on empty username string with PWQ_ERROR_USER_CHECK.


Expected results: It should consider zero length strings as NULL and continue with other checks...
