It's not out of the question that this represents a bootstrapping error.  I
don't know if anyone has tried building 0.75 before on a system that doesn't
already have libpam installed -- I certainly have not.

What you may want to do, now that you have PAM installed, is go back to the
source tree and do a 'make distclean && ./configure && make install'.  If this
fixes the problem, let us know and we can investigate further in the source.

If not, I may build a chroot test zone so I can try to duplicate the problem
-- being unable to build Linux-PAM with gcc 3.0 and glibc 2.2.3 is a very
serious concern.
