I get ERROR: pam_access have dependencies in /usr. This seems to be caused by sys-libs/glibc-2.4-r4 since it installs a /usr/lib/libdl.so link.

Mike, why a link rather than a ldscript?
that's how glibc has always worked ... it installs symlinks and since it's never been a problem, i've never bothered changing it
I don't think the problem is that there is a symlink, but that it is in /usr. PAM does not want any dependencies in /usr for some reason, and glibc puts one there.
incorrect ... the pam check is broken
(In reply to comment #4) > incorrect ... the pam check is broken > I agree.There must be a reason that that check was done, but I don't know it. I solved the problem by upgrading to pam-0.99.7.1, and it installed without a problem and seems to be working fine.
Linux-PAM 0.78 is no more supported, please all upgrade to 0.99.
