Well, I did all that, and etc-update still didn't ask me to 
fix /etc/login.defs.  So I renamed the file, and emerge'd pam-login AGAIN.  
Then it gave me the correct file.  Yeah!  

And for those keeping score at home, in order to get 'Mail', you need to 
emerge nail.  

I think I'm now back to the same system I had before hdb started whining, and 
the motherboard decided that there was nothing attached to IDE1.

Don't forget to backup!
