I wonder if it could be some library that passwd uses that is corrupt? running ldd /usr/sbin/passwd (or what ever is that path to passwd) would show what libs are being used by that and maybe reinstalling some would not hurt. Surely a pam config file error should not cause paswd to segfault but a lib that pam uses might cause it if its faulty. What was the alst thing that was upgraded or changed on your system?
