This is a bug in gnome-system-tools (the System->Admin->Services
interface), not in pam. libpam0g uses the defined interface for
starting and stopping services from package scripts, invoke-rc.d;
whereas services-admin from gnome-system-tools is subverting this
interface, by removing the start symlink in /etc/rc2.d instead of
replacing it with a stop symlink, leaving the state of the service in
that runlevel undefined.
You will find that upgrading the samba package will also cause the
service to be silently restarted under these circumstances.
