First step is for me to research the Gentoo bugzilla and see what
I can find. I'll get back to you with that.
Seems that there has been a report for 8 months with no action
taken:
Yeah, I'm the one who filed it. I don't know why they are dragging
their feet to use the newer versions. I suspect that it presents
incompatibilities with other programs somewhere that they are waiting
to be fixed.

I guess the issue doesn't seem important enough to them yet, or this
description hasn't made it clear enough.

There is an overlay that provides gentoo standard PAM + the patch for
RLIMITS usability (beside a lot of nice software not in portage ;)).
svn co
svn://svn.tuxfamily.org/svnroot/ckpp/proaudio
Might take ages till they include it into main portage, unfortunately.
Gentoo provides realtime-lsm so far, i guess they think that's enough
and easier anyway.
