[Dovecot] pam session=yes with gssapi authentication

hi there

I noticed the following behaviour with auth backend pam and "args 
session=yes *" configuration:

- login with "plain": pam session gets opend
- login with "gssapi" (kerberos): pam session isn't opend (-> no $HOME 
will be created)

Is this a bug or just a limitation by GSSAPI  (maybe gssapi works around 
PAM)?
