Correct patch
This is a correct patch.
I'm not sure we should fix this pam_stack behavior though. The reasons:
1. pam_stack is deprecated in RHEL-5
2. Although the current behavior is strictly speaking a bug some other
customers configurations might depend on this exact behavior and they will
break if we fix this.
So instead I simply recommend the customer to work around this bug by simply
not using pam_stack. Or just move the pam_unix2 out of the system-auth.

Patch implementing this as optional behavior.
