In form distributed in 4.0.12 this can't work because this two tools 
aren't use pam_start() & co. :>
(it works for me only because I use pam_make for sync "files" and NIS .db;
now after review pam_unix soutrce code I know it can be prapared 
directly by use pam_unix module).

OK I'll try use chfn/chsh today with currnet version from CVS without 
using pam_make.
