There's one place in NetworkManager (system-settings/src/nm-polkit-helpers.c) and one place in NetworkManager-gnome (src/connection-editor/nm-connection-list.c) where you can patch it out. But that would mean any user would be able to change system network configuration and it's probably not a good idea. It would probably be a better bet to convince slackware to include policy kit as more and more programs are starting to use it.
