Bug#171642: 3.7p1 PAM improvements



I said:
>The README.privsep file in openssh 3.7p1 says:

>   PAM-enabled OpenSSH is known to function with privsep on Linux.

which is a bad argument, since the 3.6.1p2 README.privsep says the
same thing.  However, I still believe the conclusion that privsep and
keyboard-interactive authentication work together in 3.7p1 because the
3.6.1p2 README.privsep says

   PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt does not function with privsep.

and the README.privsep for 3.7p1 does not say this.  A patch fixing
the privsep & keyboard-interactive problem was apparnetly published 10
June 2003:
