For anyone interested, Shadow 4.0.18.1 (just gone into LFS) has an
annoying little feature I've just discovered. If built with PAM, it
installs default configs into /etc/pam.d, which do things like *require*
pam_selinux.so. Basically, it'll break the PAM installation, giving you
a system without a working login command.

So, I've disabled this by running the following command, not sure if
it's the preferred solution. Something like it probably should go in
BLFS when it upgrades Shadow though...

sed -i 's/pam.d//' etc/Makefile 

Hoping this helps save other people a bit of grief...

Simon.
