Indeed libcrypt1 seems to the culprit.  After changing my password and
downgrading libcrypt1 (as well as libcrypt-dev) to the bullseye version
I could restore my /etc/shadow from a backup without being nagged again.

It also seems that the problem only occurs if you have not changed your
password for quite a few years and it still has an md5 hash in
/etc/shadow.  For details see
https://github.com/besser82/libxcrypt/issues/129.

Cheers,
