+      Build the pam_userdb module, that allows to authenticate users
+      against a Berkeley DB file. Please note that enabling this USE
+      flag will create a PAM module that links to the Berkeley DB (as
+      provided by <pkg>sys-libs/db</pkg>) installed in /usr/lib and
+      will thus not work for boot-critical services authentication.

+      Build the pam_cracklib module, that allows to verify the chosen
+      passwords' strength through the use of
+      <pkg>sys-libs/cracklib</pkg>. Please note that simply enabling
+      the USE flag on this package will not make use of pam_cracklib
+      by default, you should also enable it in
+      <pkg>sys-auth/pambase</pkg> as well as update your configuration
+      files.
