All my gentoo boxes run without pam from the very beginning (since many years). I hope that it will not be necessary to maintain ebuils in my overlay, should the USE=-pam option be removed from some packages. > (The issue at hand is that sudo links against -lshadow I suppose that this shouldn't be a hard fix, since previous sudo versions compiled well with USE=-pam, and there is no libshadow on my system (except for an xorg-module of that name, but I suppose that this is unrelated).
