>Description:
pam_opie makes authentication fail, despite correct OTP. When debug option is
added in /etc/pam.conf it logs returning PAM_SUCCESS from pam_sm_authenticate
but behaves as if PAM_AUTH_ERR was returned. I belive this comes from the
fact that the argument to the macro PAM_RETURN is evaulated twice and the
check fails the second time around because, as the comment it above states:
"[...] because opieverify mucks with it [its arguments]".

>How-To-Repeat:
Enable pam_opie.so for authentication in /etc/pam.conf. Type in correct
OTP. 8)

>Fix:
Apply this diff. It also makes the calls to pam_std_option in ..._authenticate
and ..._setcred symmetric, which I belive they should be. That part of the
patch is not relevant to the problem but should probably be included in the
cvs tree anyway.
