There's not much point in duplicating code across every module.  It seems
sensible to me to use modules as modules...

Try this instead:

rexec   auth     required       /usr/lib/security/pam_unix_auth.so
rexec   auth     optional       /usr/lib/security/pam_delay.so  200ms
rexec   auth     required       /usr/lib/security/pam_other_auth.so
rexec   auth     optional       /usr/lib/security/pam_delay.so  200ms

It will (assuming someone writes the module for you) give you the
behavior you want without the duplicated code.  I know waiting isn't
hard, but adding code to check the argument, and having the code know
how to parse different time specifications, etc., is a solid argument
for keeping it separate.
