debian/securetty.linux: also list ttyS2 and ttyS3; beagleboard uses ttyS2
as serial port.

* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
  - Ubuntu specific:
    + debian/login.defs: use SHA512 by default for password crypt routine.
  - debian/patches/495_stdout-encrypted-password: chpasswd can report
    password hashes on stdout (Debian bug 505640).
* Rework 495_stdout-encrypted-password to cope with chpasswd using PAM.
  It's looking a bit ugly now ...

* debian/patches/593_omit_lastchange_field_if_clock_is_misset (LP: #349504)
  - If the system clock is set to Jan 01, 1970, and a new user is created
    the last changed field gets set to 0, which tells login that the
    password is expired and must be changed. During installation,
    this can cause autologin to fail. Having the clock set to 01/01/1970
    on a fresh install is common on the ARM architecture, so this is a high
    priority bug since its likely to affect most ARM users on first install

    + debian/passwd.postinst: disable the root password for virtual

    report encrypted passwords to stdout for tools needing encrypted
    passwords (debian bug 505640).
