I did initial investigation of the source, and there's nothing odd going
on there with the configure script.
So, this one is going to be strange and probably isn't pam's fault.
I think the bug is appropriate, but it wouldn't surprise me if the fix
is somewhere other than pam, because the configure script looks quite
normal.
I just wanted to write and confirm that source inspection doesn't show
anything obvious.
I don't have sbuild set up locally (I moved to debspawn a few months
ago), but I'll go do that and try to reproduce.
