      Accept functions in place of passwords in ERC
      
But I forgot to increment the logging-format version number. Here's a
patch that does that and also ignores incoming messages when checking
for redacted secrets, which is currently pointless. Anyone interested
please take a look (preferably in the next few days). Thanks.
