OK, so the manual page says: 
" -Z

    Allow run-time dereferencing of null pointers. See the discussions
of -Z and pointers in cc(1). (This is the complement of the -z
option.)"

There's a related GCC bug
(http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33548) which says

"There is a patch for libpam which should fix the
null pointer reference available from HP.  It is HP patch PHCO_37076."

It looks like this is purely a bug in HP-UX's libpam.
