I mentioned this about a week ago, but didn't get any response.
/usr/src/libexec/rshd/rshd.c was changed in -current to remove PAM support
(v1.33), but it was never MFCed.  /etc/pam.conf, however, was (more or
less).  v1.6.2.1 (-stable) changed "sufficient" to "required" for some
reason, and v1.8 (-current only) removed the rshd line entirely.
