I'm not a PAM user, but your pg_hba entry seems correct according to the
docs:
> host all all 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 pam
> postgresql
assuming that that's really one line and your message was just
line-wrapped by your mailer.

This is the behavior I would expect to see if PAM support were not
present in the postmaster. Are you certain that your pg_config file
corresponds to the installed, running postmaster?
Another possibility is that the postmaster has cached a previous version
of pg_hba.conf in which the syntax was indeed incorrect. If you've been
editing pg_hba.conf, did you SIGHUP the postmaster afterwards? ("pg_ctl
reload" is the same as SIGHUP)
