configure: error: *** libpam missing
-------
I tracked the cause down to the following patch
openssh-1p1-0.3.6.patch
-------

The USE flag associated with this patch is 'ldap'.

Not quite sure why I'm getting this now..but will look into.
Just wanted to post to help everyone else.

If anyone has any suggestions please email

Thanxs
