Would it be possible for me to check for it being enabled? it looks as
though it is not. is it very hard to add the fix? or would I be better
off trying to build a package from another distro that has it enabled? 
I believe my libpam version is 0.81.12 and I have 0.81.8 on an opensuse
box that works just fine with user authentication auditing.
