Paul gave me access to a machine similart to the one that's running the test
on armhf. It looks like it's a race condition in the test itself (or in the
frr scripts):

The test runs 
  service frr reload
and then runs
  vtysh -c 'show running-config'
to check if the output is changed. With the new pam, this command still shows
the old config immediately after the reload. A few seconds later, it shows the
new config. I suspect the changes in pam affect the timing of some of the
steps involved.

As it looks like this is an issue in the frr test (or the frr package), I'm
reassigning the bugs there.

Cheers,

Ivo
