Oops.  Yes, I agree.  I have fixed this in the debian CVS.

Btw, beware that the PAM module has only been lightly tested, and it
was a long time ago.  I'd appreciate any help on testing and improving
it.  The source code for the module is quite short.

I have built new packages, and they seem correct and lintian clean.
Russ, do you know if we can upload new packages now?  I'd say this bug
is 'grave' since it makes the libpam-shishi package unusable, but
upgrading to higher severity level seems controversial.

Thanks!
