There are currently two modules in ptloader: ldap and afskrb. Those
module are 1250 and 560 lines long. This should be possible to write a
"flat file" pt module. Only init and auth_state functions need to be
implemented (but it is not well documented).

from ptloader.h:
<<<
struct pts_module {
    const char *name;

    void (*init)(void);
    struct auth_state *(*make_authstate)(const char *identifier,
                size_t size,
                const char **reply, int *dsize);
};
