/**
 * Elgg Simple PAM library
 * Contains functions for managing authentication.
 * This is not a full implementation of PAM. It supports a single facility 
 * (authentication) and allows multiple policies (user authentication is the
 * default). There are two control flags possible for each module: sufficient 
 * or required. The entire chain for a policy is processed (or until a 
 * required module fails). A module fails by returning false or throwing an 
 * exception. The order that modules are processed is determined by the order 
 * they are registered. For an example of a PAM, see pam_auth_userpass() in 
 * sessions.php.
 * 
 * For more information on PAMs see:
 * http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/pam/index.html
