Good catch. I suggest we do:
if (((*login)[0] == '+' && (!(*login)[1] || (*login)[1] == '@')) &&
(*ciphertext)[0] != '$' &&
strlen(*ciphertext) < 10 && strncmp(*ciphertext, "$dummy$", 7)) {

I'm not sure if it's worth it, and it won't matter for the current
testcase anyway. ;-)
We could also use strnlen() there, if we depend on it elsewhere in the
jumbo tree anyway.
