  You need to emerge *EITHER* pam *OR* shadow.  You can't emerge bothe,
because they provide the same service.  I prefer to run without pam,
because "everything you know is wrong" when it comes to config files all
over the place.  You end up using entirely several different config
files to control access.  If you already know and are comfortable with
pam, fine, go ahead and use it.  You probably do *NOT* want to combine
the learning curve of pam with the learning curve of Gentoo at the same
time.
