Log Message:
Update security/PAM to 0.75.  Note that this release contains backwardly
incompatible changes to libpam.so; prior versions were buggy so upgrading
is highly recommended.

Pkgsrc changes from version 0.72 include:

  * Honor ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}: the config files are now found in /etc/pam.conf
    and /etc/pam/*.conf, or in the appropriate ${PKG_SYSCONFBASE} directory.
  * Convert to use the general INSTALL/DEINSTALL scripts.

Changes from version 0.72 include:

  * bug fixes to almost every PAM module
  * pam_pwdb replaced with pam_unix
  * fixed a small security hole (more of a user confusion issue) with
    the unix and pwdb password helper binaries.
  * improved handling of the setcred/close_session and update chauthtok
    stack.  *Warning* This is a backwardly incompatible change, but 'more
    sane' than before. (Bug 129775 - agmorgan)
  * added support for '/' symbols in pam_time and pam_group config files
    (support for modern terminal devices).  Fixed infinite loop problem
    with '\\[^\n]' in these files.
  * added accessconf=<filename> feature to pam_access
