I have an application that is calling the pam functions (i.e. pam_start, pam_authenticate, etc.) When i have it compiled without the -lpthread tag, life is good everything works. If all i do is add the -lpthread (NOT calling any pam functions from a thread) the app hangs when the conversation callback returns. Even though for this simple application i am not calling any pam functions from inside a thread, is this normal behavior and should I move on or is there a work around?
