PAM overrides PermitEmptyPasswords

[Adam McKenna]

I noticed while investigating Debian Bug #93200
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=93200&repeatmerged=yes)
that sshd refuses a login if /etc/pam.d/ssh doesn't specify "nullok" after
the pam_unix.so module -- is there any way to resolve this problem?  It seems
that OpenSSH should override PAM in this case, someone posted a patch on 6/19
that appears to address this problem,
(http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=openssh-unix-dev&m=99293778402235&w=2)
is there any chance this will be fixed in the next release?

Thanks,

--Adam
