I just realised I had access to some OpenBSD gear: it's a "4.8 
GENERIC.MP#411 amd64". My terminal settings was very confusing but after 
I hard coded the pound sign as \xa3 it does produce the exact same hash 
as my perl script:

bash-4.1$ cat bf.c
#include <pwd.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
   char password[] = "\xa3"; // Pound sign in ISO-8859-1
   printf("BF Crypt: %s\n", crypt(password, 
"$2a$05$/OK.fbVrR/bpIqNJ5ianF.$"));
   return 0;
}
bash-4.1$ cc -o bf bf.c
bash-4.1$ ./bf
BF Crypt: $2a$05$/OK.fbVrR/bpIqNJ5ianF.Sa7shbm4.OzKpvFnX1pQLmQW96oUlCq
