Understood :) Here is the first version of the new interface. It
extends the wbcAuthenticateUserEx call so that a client can provide a
PAC. I extended the AUTH_CRAP call since the suggestion was to use the
privileged pipe and AUTH_CRAP already uses this pipe. The usage from
the client would like this:

        params.level = WBC_AUTH_USER_LEVEL_PAC;
        params.password.pac.data = (uint8_t *)pac;
        params.password.pac.length = length;

        wbc_err = wbcAuthenticateUserEx(&params, &info, &error);

If this is acceptable, i will look into the PAC signature verification
next.
