FWIW, in Ubuntu 20.04 a bcrypt hash generated with -B in the provided
htpasswd (that uses their own implementation), can be used by crypt(3):
$ perl -e 'print crypt("cvspassword",
"\$2y\$05\$xGcVN3jyU43rgH/jtc0mG.wMEYmvXBjdZtBc5R1jFYD83aaOTWiqa"), "\n"'
$2y$05$xGcVN3jyU43rgH/jtc0mG.wMEYmvXBjdZtBc5R1jFYD83aaOTWiqa
