The problem was with the LDAPAuthentication extension. It has a function used to see if the user is allowed to change passwords. This was always returning 'false', so the 'Reset password' special page never appeared (that is, there was no link to the page in the 'Users and rights' special page). Once I had sorted the function out, then the link appeared.
