It's still a better idea to mail it to the list, as it'll
benefit other guys too. So I'm cc'ing it there.

With exactly the same command line, I don't get any linker
errors:

$ cat test.cc
extern int pam_start;

main()
{
        pam_start = 0;
}
$ c++ test.cc -lpam -lpam_misc -ldl
$

So I suspect that something is wrong with your libpam.so. On my redhat 6.1
box:

$ md5sum /lib/libpam*
7192d822911dbf0019bff1805efb35fc  /lib/libpam.so
7192d822911dbf0019bff1805efb35fc  /lib/libpam.so.0
7192d822911dbf0019bff1805efb35fc  /lib/libpam.so.0.68
078ff9ae4f2d2fc53840275bcc1077cb  /lib/libpam_misc.a
48fbc3736652214e574e6bc2a3edf670  /lib/libpam_misc.so
48fbc3736652214e574e6bc2a3edf670  /lib/libpam_misc.so.0
48fbc3736652214e574e6bc2a3edf670  /lib/libpam_misc.so.0.68

You can verify that the checksums match.
