In my case:

[kloczek@v20z-2 src]$ make login
/bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc  -g -O2   -o login  login.o 
login_nopam.o ../libmisc/libmisc.a ../lib/libshadow.la
gcc -g -O2 -o login login.o login_nopam.o  ../libmisc/libmisc.a 
../lib/.libs/libshadow.a -lcrypt -lselinux
                          ^^^^^^^
I supose you have shadow source code configured for not use PAM support.
Missing -lcrypt in src/Makefile::LIBCRYPT in your case mean probaly 
some problems on libcrypt detection (look on config.log file and try find 
out fragment with "crypt" function checks).

1) you must check: do you have libcrypt.so symlink (usualy it comes with
    glibc-devel package so you must install this package or chekc what
    happens with this symlink),

2) shadow configure.ac must fixed for handled correctly case like yours
    by finish with error message lack of library which provides crypt()
    function (I'm during fixing this).

Thank you for report.
