o For non-extensible-style hashes, strip off anything after the 13th character
  which would not be valid as part of a hash.  On HP/UX, this clips off a comma
  followed by encoded aging information.

  The real problem is a complete lack of any standard for storing password
  aging information (actually, for anything having to do with password aging)
  for users across operating systems, but there's nothing we can do about that
  here.
