Currently in Fedora glibc stopped providing libcrypt[0] a change which is slowly being upstreamed as well[1] in favor of the libxcrypt project[2].

This causes a segfault when importing the crypt module as python assumes that crypt.h is always available.

Providing a working patch from the libxcrypt maintainer. I'll convert the patch into a PR.
