Ooops! Pressed send too hastily!

I assumed that there'd be an update available to shadow which would  
fix this, but looking closer at the output of `grep -l -ie pwdb -ie  
radius -ie timestamp -ie console /etc/pam.d/*` it seems that the line  
containg `pam_console.so` is commented out on my system:

   # If you want to enable pam_console, uncomment the following line
   # and read carefully README.pam_console in /usr/share/doc/pam*
   #session    optional    pam_console.so

So the question arises, did you uncomment it?
Or is your sys-apps/shadow just older than mine?
What does `grep -l -ie pwdb -ie radius -ie timestamp -ie console /etc/ 
pam.d/* actually say on your machine?
