Heyho Andrew,
If the PAM patch is not part of your distributions 1.4 release and your
authentication system needs PAM (which I assume), you can try the latest PAM
patch from the wiki:
http://tools.suckless.org/slock/patches/pam_auth .
If this solves your problem, you can follow up with your maintainer and ask him
to integrate this patch to the ports tree as it was done for 1.3.
