In the current kadmin, "DES cbc mode with CRC-32, no salt" is in fact
salted with the default v5 salt method, whereas "DES cbc mode with
CRC-32, Version 4" is actually not salted.

I don't think this could be more confusing if it was designed to be as
confusing as possible.  :)

Solving 5014 would help here, but only partly.  The basic problem is
that :normal does not actually mean no salt, but that's how it's
displayed.  Perhaps that string in the kadmin client should be changed
to "default salt" instead?
