It's really hard to keep up with every package. The packages were
current when updated:
Last update
openssl 2011-10-21
gnutls 2011-11-10 (four updates in 2 months!) actually current is
gnutls-3.0.11.tar.xz
sudo 2011-10-19
however,
Linux-PAM-1.1.5 cannot be installed by the book, without modification,
as has been already discussed in blfs-support.
I did not remember
exactly the posts, thus, by trial and error, changing .config
parameters, I finally arrived to:

Did you try with the changes at
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/errata/stable/
When I did PAM, I did have libtirpc installed, but I generally don't
like or install PAM. I really don't see any value added unless you are
using ldap to replace /etc/{passwd,shadow}.

Some here advocate --enable-shared and --disable-static. It's a
personal choice. I doubt --with-gnu-ld does anything.
I'm not sure --disable-static is needed if the glibc nis headers have
been installed. That does need to be rechecked.
