Did you not have PAM installed before? (You mentioned that you issued an emerge pam, but was pam installed before that?) You can compile openssh without pam support by removing the pam useflag: edit /etc/portage/package.use so that there's one line for 'net-misc/openssh -pam' and retry your emerge. I personally have -pam in USE from make.conf, it depends on whether you need the functionality.
