Comment (by tellyworth):

 unique-salt-r9678.patch fixes the problem by providing a fallback salt
 value that's unique to each auth scheme.

 Unit tests are in http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress-tests/wp-
 testcase/test_includes_pluggable.php TestAuthFunctions.  There's one
 failure before the patch, all pass afterwards.

 I made a typo in one of the examples above (-3600 instead of +3600) but
 the unit tests in svn are correct.
