Re: SCRAM authentication, take three

Hello.

Good to know that the work on this great feature continues!

However this set of patches does not pass `make check-world` on my
laptop.

Here is how I build and test PostgreSQL:

I'm using Arch Linux with latest updates, Python version is 3.6.0. I
have no idea what SCRAM has to do with Python, but this issue reproduced
two times of two I did `make check-world`. There is no such issue in
current master branch.
