By old functionality, I am referring to the listname.passwd file getting
written to. Being someone that still uses the deprecated listname.passwd
file, and not for the "master password", I can have the best of both worlds
by adding a "newpasswd" command that does what the old "passwd" command did
pre-passwd.0 patch.
