Don't you fear to install libc also? If there's bug in libc, *all* of your
programs are vulnerable, except statically linked ones! Oh terror! Let's
abandon all the idea of shared libs then - for it's nothing special for
PAM in this regard, all of them are same.

Security concerns is a good thing, but some amount of reason also helps.
