Which password encryption have you been using before?

I case you've been using the default password scrambler only (which is
rather insecure, but since you've got shadowed passwords anyway, this
might be acceptable for you), you can pick the copy of crypt.c out of
the libc code from 1.1.5.1, make it a separate library (say libnocrypt
:-), and symlink the existing libcrypt's against it.  You will have to
relink all commands that statically link -lcrypt (init(8) comes to
mind, i'm not sure if there will be many more), while the dynamically
linked will pick it up automatically.

In case you don't have it handy, here's the crypt() from 1.1.5.1,
unifdef'ed for non-DES usage:
