Well, we certainly are not going to break pq_recvbuf in such a fundamental way as that ;-). I think that the more likely place to work around this is going to be in pam_passwd_conv_proc() in src/backend/libpq/auth.c. In particular, I see that when it gets a NULL from recv_password_packet (which is what's going to happen when pq_recvbuf returns EOF), it returns PAM_CONV_ERR without bothering to set *resp. I wonder whether we need to be initializing *resp to NULL, or even making it really valid?
