Yeah, this is one of the problems though.  Linux-PAM does it either way,
Solaris uses one file, etc...  PAM does really intend for the application
to know about the configuration file.  The application should just specify
a service name (e.g. "samba" or "swat"), so my original suggestion won't
work.
