No, it doesn't sound right at all.  Why would they want to make
themselves platform specific?  There'd be all kinds of checks to see if
they were using /etc/pam.conf or /etc/pam.d.  Plus, they'd have to do
checks for things like the $ISA that expands into sparcv9 for 64-bit
applications on Solaris 8.

It uses libpam as far as I can tell:

[mailhost]/usr/lib> strings libsasl.so.7.1.8 | grep Build
$Build: libsasl cyrus-sasl-1.5.24 $
[mailhost]/usr/lib> ldd libsasl.so.7.1.8 
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/libdl.so.1
        libpam.so.1 =>   /usr/dt/lib/libpam.so.1
        libresolv.so.2 =>        /usr/lib/libresolv.so.2
        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libc.so.1
        libsocket.so.1 =>        /usr/lib/libsocket.so.1
        libnsl.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
        libmp.so.2 =>    /usr/lib/libmp.so.2
        /usr/platform/SUNW,Ultra-80/lib/libc_psr.so.1
