>Description:
Because the pam_unix.so does not load libcrypt.so, it forces applications using that PAM to load libcrypt.so. 

It should load libcrypt.so itself, instead of assuming that the main program links with libcrypt.so.
>How-To-Repeat:
Any program that uses PAM that does not link with libcrypt.so (for example Courier-IMAP)
>Fix:
Have mod_unix.so load libcrypt.so itself.
