I think they all do LWS tuning, using Lukas' shared function. Claudio did some good work with shared functions for GWS tuning. This does not necessarily imply he will fix old formats. I think commit 6bbd4a3 shows how it was utilized for md5crypt. Unfortunately Claudio is away for a while.

Not me. I believe all of them are very similar, so if it's done right to one it should be easy to replicate to the others.
