no i haven't customised anything in pam.d. not in this install at least.
not sure either about this login on :0, you're right, it shouldn't be
there. lastlog should only report tty logins. puzzled about that entry
too now.
not having around logs from that time is not helpful, i know..

anyway, not really sure if this is a bug here. during that period
(dec-jan) i was testing different scenarios & various DEs, something
could have triggered that..
so, feel free to proceed (close?) as you like...

thanks,
