* will contain a user id, and the second chunk (MAX_PASSWORD bytes) will
* contain a password.

* The program exits with a value of

*
* If the input is coming from the console/keyboard, then the write calls
* are managed by the shell which will process each piece of input
* separately.
* However, if the input is coming from a pipe, there is no guarantee that
* two writes generated by checkpasswd will send the data such that it
* will be read by the two reads below. The means that it is important for
* checkpasswd to send exactly as many bytes that validate is expecting.
* Otherwise the behaviour may be unpredicatable.
*
* This also means that checkpasswd should report an invalid password
