vipw are a mess and probably should be cleaned up.

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.

makes FreeBSD inconsistent with previous releases and "other unices" as well
as with some internal password-asking services (e.g. ftp) within the same
release.
o The new options-processing API

Add man(1) pages for ALL modules. MDOC-Police welcome
to check this.
Audit, clean up while I'm here.
Move common stuff into Makefile.inc, and tidy up all the Makefiles
as a result.
Build new modules.
Put a commented-out dependancy on libpam for the (shared) modules.
I can't bring this in just yet, as the dependancy (modules->libpam)
is reversed for the static case (libpam->modules).
reason not to add it to others later). This causes the pam_unix
module to check the user's _own_ password, not the password of the
account that the user is authenticating into. This will allow eg:
WHEELSU type behaviour from su(1).
non-threaded programs. This provides threaded programs with the
needed exception frame symbols.

Add account management functionality to the pam_unix module.
These changes should make it possible to use PAM in some ports.

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.
