crypt(3)

So I found a C implementation of crypt(3) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crypt_%28Unix%29#Library_Function ), but I'm having some trouble getting it to work. It's weird. With MinGW and GCC 4.x it produces the correct output, but with GCC 3.x and VC++, it doesn't. The kind of output it gives me makes me suspect of uninitialized data, but I passed it through Valgrind and got nothing (then again, I did pass a version that gave correct results). Compiling as C code doesn't help.
Any idea of what could be causing it? Alternative implementations are also welcome.

This is the implementation I used:

Wow. What a fossil. How the hell does that even compile on modern compilers? Ancient K&R syntax, including missing argument declarations, missing return types, register variables, etc.

Check out the version in GNU glibc: ftp://ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/home/aeb/linux-local/libc.archive/glibc/glibc-crypt-2.1.tar.gz

Obviously, I touched up the function signatures and variable declarations a bit.

The link gives me a 550, but I'll try getting the glibc source elsewhere.
Well, glibc's crypt() was so long, I figured it would be easier to fix the one above. I think I found the problem. The code is relying heavily on undefined behavior.
For example, I just found this:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
static char L[32],R[32];
//...
//(in a function)
int i;
//...
for (i=0;i<64;i++)
    L[i]=/*...*/;

When I moved the arrays to local storage, the for became an infinite loop because I declared i before L, so overflowing the buffer was overwriting i with a zero.
Friggin' finally!
The code relied on undefined behavior at two locations. Is it so much to ask from a C programmer to not make assumptions about the relative physical positions of arrays?

I'll leave the working version here in case anyone needs it. It should be valid C, I think. I changed the interface a bit because I wanted to make it thread-safe, and returning a pointer to a static array is a no-no.

NAMESPACE_MY_CLOSE


EDIT: Okay, now it's definitely valid (gcc file.c -pedantic -std=c89).

Valid C, but with a namespace? What?

namespace my{
Should be
1
2
3
#ifdef __cplusplus
namespace my{
#endif 

if you want it to compile with a C compiler :)
