That's what happens when devs don't work from an up-to-date local p4 tree.
That spell has been moved to security-libs a number of times...
In the end i just gave up.
I'm also pretty sure there are more spells which are in a couple of places in
the grimoire. linux-pam is another one which keeps popping up in different
places. This will continue to happen untill everyone syncs their p4 tree 
before
editing it.

When linux-pam started to refuse to build without cracklib i added the 
cracklib
spell. It might be able to be optional, when someone edits the Makefile.
at the time it seemed easier to add the cracklib spell.

The cracklib spell broke in less than a week due to them wanting --referer set
The spell in security-libs was updated to download it using --referer.

If anyone knows another wordlist which we could use in the spell that might be
a better solution. Because they obviously don't want people downloading it
without visiting their website.
