I am seeing these too. Downgrading avoids the noise.
This error comes from libpam itself when called with a NULL argument.
The prototype is:
int pam_set_item(pam_handle_t *pamh, int item_type, const void *item);
Early in the pam routines there is this check:
IF_NO_PAMH("pam_set_item", pamh, PAM_SYSTEM_ERR);
Apparently 'pamh' is NULL. Looks like a usage problem.
