Wordpress 6.8 moving away from phpass #13

I have yet to test this fully, and I have been running into some inconsistencies with a recent WP project. Again, I have to more fully test to get details, but it seems some users run through the WP login / update routine properly and others do not. It seemed it worked at first, so I suspect I'm working with shifting data (WP updates PWs when you log in?) I'm not 100% convinced this is my issue, but I could see this being something to be aware of regardless. I might get adventurous and see how much work is required to just dump the new library into it and change the handler just to get around this. ;)
