Symptom:  When mailcrypt reads a password for message (de|en)cryption,
or PGP signature, the colors are not restored cleanly after frame
color inversion.

The color inversion algorithm in utils/passwd.el is apparently not
completely compatible with Gnus custom faces, some of which get
changed to black by the process.

The odd thing about this is that if Options/Edit Faces is selected,
the colors appear normal there.  The faces that have trouble are the
ones that are doubled in the *Edit Faces* buffer.  RoyalBlue (Bold &
Normal) and DarkGreen (Normal) in my setup.

The best work around is to use Chuck's flag:
(setq passwd-invert-frame-when-keyboard-grabbed nil)

This turns color inversion off, and has the added benefit of working
like GNU Emacs too.  I doubt the original author has much time for
fixing this sort of thing :-).
