pam_strerror() should be used a few more times, rather than just saying
"Error!". Also, the configure.in snippet seems wrong. You add
-I$pam_prefix/include/security to $INCLUDES and then you #include
<security/pam_appl.h>. This whole thing is probably unnecessary, since
PAM is a system library on the systems where it exists, so the headers
and libraries are found automatically, unlike OpenSSL and
Kerberos.
