Well, the manpage and the interactive help claim that the '-b' switch
will make htpasswd "get the password from the command line rather than
prompting for it". The example you submitted does _not_ give the username
and password on the command line but on standard input!
Try "htpasswd -b -c htpasswd olaf foo" - this should work (it does here).
