Oh, foo.  Integration of pam was dropped as a release goal of 2.0
because it is quite simply not tenable if you want to release hamm
before 1999.  You can not simply recompile core applications like
shadow and net{base,std} with pam and "hope they work", especially not
a month+ into freeze.

The non-use of pam is not a "significant bug" and I have no idea what
makes you think it is.
