Log:
Don't build with LAN Manager password support; these passwords are more
insecure than traditional Unix crypt, and only relevant when talking to
Windows 98.

If someone really needs lanman passwords, then the patch from bug #245341
will also need to be updated and applied, since the existing code doesn't
build with gcrypt; but I strongly advise against re-enabling these password
hashes, as even Samba isn't going to be using them by default anymore in
hardy/lenny and beyond.
