Thank you. Because I am an rx fan, I took a moment to translate this
to rx (hopefully correctly). I include it below for the benefit of
others trawling the BTS. The predicate attempts to apply the patch to
only those versions for which this has not been fixed upstream.
(when (or (< emacs-major-version 22)
(and (= emacs-major-version 22)
(< emacs-minor-version 2)))
(setq comint-password-prompt-regexp
(or "\\(?:\\(?:\\(?:\\(?:Old\\|old\\|New\\|new\\|'s \\|login
\\|Kerberos \\|CVS \\|UNIX \\| SMB \\|LDAP \\|\\[sudo]
\\|^\\)\\(?:[Pp]assword\\)\\(?: (again)\\)?\\)\\|pass
phrase\\|\\(?:\\(?:\\(?:Bad\\|Enter\\|Repeat\\)
\\)?\\(?:[Pp]assphrase\\)\\)\\)\\(?:, try again\\)?\\(?: for
