Description Accot, Johnny 2000-01-30 14:58:47 UTC 
Which results in a /tmp/pam-debug.log file being created
and *readable* by everybody!  Hope you'll remember to
remove the DEBUG flag before releasing 6.2 :-) ...

[At least that's the behavior I have on three different
machines, whithout playing with anything]

Actually explained by a Debian bug report :

Fixed in 0.72-3 and later.
