I don't get this.  I don't know ssha1, but...

That's for generating ssha1 hashes in hash_ssha1(), it is not used for
decoding them in chk_ssha1() - which I assume is what he needs when
moving _to_ OpenLDAP.

chk_ssha1() looks independent of salt size - it base64-decodes the
provided salt+hash and finds expects the salt to start at position
LUTIL_SHA1_BYTES (from include/lutil_sha1.h) in that string.
