Yeah this is what I meant, it is just one dir and not a list. The only way  
to override it (from looking at openpam_dynamic.c) seems to be an absolute  
path:

[...]
/* Prepend the standard prefix if not an absolute pathname. */
if (path[0] != '/')
         prefix = OPENPAM_MODULES_DIR;
else
         prefix = "";
[...]

Bug #2407: openpam won't look for pkgsrc pam module path
http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/2407

When I try to load pam modules that where installed from pkgsrc, they're installed in /usr/pkg/lib/security, which is not included in the openpam's search paths defined at compile time. I'm getting this error:

Aug 18 12:45:38 yyy login: in openpam_dynamic(): No such file or directory
Aug 18 12:45:38 yyy login: in openpam_load_module(): no pam_xxx.so found
Aug 18 12:45:38 yyy login: pam_start(): system error

The complete path is not specified in the default pam.d service files that comes with DragonFly.
