Would be nice to get human readable output here. I spent a lot of time
searching for the problem, a simple "Could not read usersfile." would be of
great help.

I took a deeper look at pam_unix and unix_chkpwd. pam_unix always calls
unix_chkpwd via execev() to authenticate the user.
I'm not sure I could implement this for pam_oath... Is anybody willing to do
this? I will take a deeper look if I have some spare time.
