At least the part about Linux is not entirely true.
If PAM is installed and used, then account and credential verification should 
probably go through PAM, but system administrator is free to decide to not 
install PAM at all.

Perhaps some Linux distributions like Red Hat and Fedora do not support 
PAM-free systems, but Gentoo certainly supports PAM-free systems (support for 
PAM is enabled by default in Gentoo, but is not enforced).
