You'd have to create a modified checkpassword program for that.  But
instead of printing plaintext, it could print the new-format hash.

Also note that qmail-popup dups descriptor 1 to descriptor 2 before
invoking the checkpassword module.  So for your checkpassword to be
able to write to the log pipe, you'll have to add "exec 3>&2" to the
run script and make your checkpassword write to (and then close, if
you like) descriptor 3.
