This is really a pam bug.

vmware-server uses pam as shipped in ia32-libs. pam hardcodes the
/lib/security path, but on amd64 installations, this is where the 64-bit
pam modules are, so we end up with a 32 bit application tryin to dlopen
a 64 bit binary, which obviously doesn't work. What needs to be done in
pam is to check if (uname says we're running 64 bit && we're compiled
for 32 bit) we should go looking in /lib32/security instead.

** Changed in: pam (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: None => pam
