I had another Debian install on another partition (and I think I'm going to keep it for just such emergencies). I booted to that and downloaded libpam-modules, libpam0g, libpam-runtime from the testing branch. Then, mounted the partitions with the broken PAM on /mnt and: dpkg --root=/mnt -i libpam*.deb lilo -r /mnt # ('cuz I'd hosed my LILO in an earlier attempt) ...and rebooted. Good luck.
