tom at SiRiUS ~ $ equery which pam
/home/tom/cvs/proaudio/trunk/overlays/proaudio/sys-libs/pam/pam-0.99.7.1-r1.ebuild

Though 0.78-r6 is marked as stable here, whereas 0.99 is marked as
~arch (testing/unstable). Gentoo stable likes keeping old stuff, because
of stability reasons I'd guess - like debian, or redhat, or whatever
other distro providing stable and testing branches.
But if you want the newer one, just emerge it. You just have to unmask
it.

Also no idea why you are using a 2.6.16 kernel - 2.6.20-rt8 is superb,
at least on my uniproc machine here.

Cheers
