on the release media -- only put what is different in the crypto
version compared to the base version. This reduces PAM entries
in /usr/lib in the "crypto" distribution to:
libpam.a
libpam.so@
libpam.so.2
pam_krb5.so@
pam_krb5.so.2
pam_ksu.so@
pam_ksu.so.2
pam_ssh.so@
pam_ssh.so.2
The libpam.so* is still redundant (it is identical to the "base"
version), but we can't set DISTRIBUTION differently for libpam.a
and libpam.so.
(The removal of libpam.so* from the crypto distribution could be
addressed by the release/scripts/crypto-make.sh script, but then
we'd also need to remove redundant PAM headers, and I'm not sure
this is worth a hassle.)
applications linked with Linux-PAM will still work.
Remove pam_get_pass(); OpenPAM has pam_get_authtok().
Remove pam_prompt(); OpenPAM has pam_{,v}{error,info,prompt}().
Remove pam_set_item(3) man page as OpenPAM has its own.

modules for FreeBSD's standard authentication methods. Although
the Linux-PAM modules are present in the contrib tree, we don't
use any of them.
The main library "libpam" is composed of sources taken from three
places. First are the standard Linux-PAM libpam sources from the
contrib tree. Second are the Linux-PAM "libpam_misc" sources, also
from the contrib tree. In Linux these form a separate library.
But as Mike Smith pointed out to me, that seems pointless, so I
have combined them into the libpam library. Third are some additional
sources from the "src/lib/libpam" tree with some common functions
that make it easier to write modules. Those I wrote myself.
