In the attachment there are parts of the auth.log from the time in
question, I left out duplicate parts. My editing in the config to fix
the problem could be the reason for errors at the end of the log.

I also tried to reproduce the bug, by setting auth-common and auth-
password back to the "old" version from my first post. In a second
terminal, I tried to do a 'sudo -s' and got this in Terminal:
Segmentation fault.

Unfortunately this doesn't seems to be the same problem to me, since the 
behaviour is different (didn't get any error in terminal in the first place).
But anyway, here is the entry in auth.log corresponding to the new login try:
Nov 16 22:40:01 my-username-desktop CRON[19449]: pam_unix(cron:session): 
session opened for user root by (uid=0)
Nov 16 22:40:01 my-username-desktop CRON[19449]: pam_unix(cron:session): 
session closed for user root

No, I don't think so. Maybe I mistyped at my first login try, but I also 
restarted and still couldn't log in.
