I thought that only PMC members can cast binding votes,

That's correct.

so, if none of the others vote +1, the vote will eventually fail?

I guess lazy consensus apply here. If I'm correct, the answer is no, it won't fail. From http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html:

"Votes on code modifications follow a different model. In this scenario, a negative vote constitutes a veto , which cannot be overridden. Again, this model may be modified by a lazy consensus declaration when the request for a vote is raised, but the full-stop nature of a negative vote is unchanged. Under normal (non-lazy consensus) conditions, the proposal requires three positive votes and no negative ones in order to pass; if it fails to garner the requisite amount of support, it doesn't -- and typically is either withdrawn, modified, or simply allowed to languish as an open issue until someone gets around to removing it."
