Purpose of commit: minor security bugfix
Commit summary:
---------------
Fixes for the password helper binaries.
Before, there was no check that the password entered was actually that
of the intended user being authenticated. Instead, the password was
checked for the requesting user. While this disstinction sounds like a
security hole, its actually not been a problem in practice. The helper
binaries have only been used in the case that the application is not
setuid-0 and as such even if an improper authentication succeeded, the
application could not change its uid from that of the requesting user.

Purpose of commit: autoconf support for Linux-PAM
Commit summary:
---------------
This is a merge of the autoconf support that was developed against
a 0-72 branch.
[Note, because CVS has some issues, this is actually only 95% of
the actual commit. The other files were actually committed when
the preparation branch Linux-PAM-0-73pre-autoconf was updated.
Hopefully, this will complete the merge.]
