I d'loaded pam_0.76.orig.tar.gz from steamballoon and had a go at

homework on the options and try again.
You can't build a .deb by just untarring the source and doing configure,
make, make install.
You have to get the source like this:
apt-get source package-name
Then cd to the directory that is created, and run
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
Please see http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ch-build.en.html.

How do I apply your patch to this PAM stuff. I
don't really know where
to start.
Since you're running pure64, my packages (which are i386) won't work for
you. The easiest thing for you is probably to get the sources from
http://steamballoon.com/pam/debian-testing/ and rebuild the debs for your
system.
