When shutting down the system, I got two errors about invalid entries in pam_env.conf. I was unable to locate any log that contains the lines, but it's pretty obvious what's going on when you look at the file. It looks like some diff output overwrote the file itself. It was set like this on two machines, and to my knowledge, I've never edited that file before.
