I doubt the first test is useful.
On our modern Linux systems, probably is useless. But we don't know if other unix like systems do not incorporate it in libc.
I believe check_function_exists always fails here.
$ man 3 crypt --> "Link with -lcrypt."
This would be better, no?:
check_library_exists( crypt crypt "" HAVE_CRYPT ) if( HAVE_CRYPT ) set( CRYPT_LIBRARY crypt ) endif( )
