From a quick look through the source, it appears `log_to_syslog()`
in `/usr/share/perl5/Debian/AdduserLogging.pm` removes everything
starting at the first backtick.
Thanks for spotting this (and for actually taking a look at adduser's
new logging features).
I think this unwanted behavior, might be caused by trying to sanitize
the data here before passing it to logger(1).
Can you try tweaking the regexp in AdduserLogging.pm Line 149 for a
quick diagnosis?
Greetings
Marc
