Yes I have setup all Postgres servers with pam. Are you sure that the pam
libraries are correctly installed on your system?

From the above I cannot see why configure fails to locate the pam
libraries - can you show us the contents of config.log (or at least the
relevant parts) after calling configure --with-pam?

What does "ls -l /usr/lib/libpam* /lib/libpam*" show?
