Ok, this is excruciating. I can only assume that I am doing something
so completely wrong that it is befuddling the build system and it's not
generating an error that would be meaningful.
I am using a RELENG_6 build machine to build a RELENG_6 image and I
can't seem to figure out what is generating this non-sense PAM error.
I'm certain that the correct libs are in place and that everything is
being built without errors.
Is anyone else using RELENG_6 with NanoBSD right now? This worked
pre-6.3 and I can't see anything that would be causing this type of
absolute failure.
