That's the only file where it's called, and it's a delicate function.
Reduce the chances that other files call it.

The separation was unnecessary, and caused build problems. Let's go
wild and obliterate the library. The files are moved to libshadow.
Scripted change:
$ find libmisc/ -type f \
| grep '\.[chy]$' \
| xargs mv -t lib;
Plus updating the Makefile and other references. While at it, I've
sorted the sources lists.

Recently, we removed support for 'struct utmpx'. We did it because utmp
and utmpx are identical, and while POSIX specifies utmpx (and not utmp),
GNU/Linux documentation seems to favor utmp. Also, this project
defaulted to utmp, so changing to utmpx would be more dangerous than
keeping old defaults, even if it's supposed to be the same.
Now, I just found more code that didn't make much sense: lib/utent.c
provides definitions for getutent(3) and friends in case the system
doesn't provide them, but we don't provide prototypes for those
definitions, so code using the functions would have never compiled.
Let's just remove these definitions as dead code.
Fixes: 3be7b9d75a6b ("Remove traces of utmpx")
Fixes: 170b76cdd1a9 ("Disable utmpx permanently")

PARAMETERS:
According to the C2x charter, I reordered the parameters 'size'
and 'buf' from previously existing date_to_str() definitions.
C2x charter:
> 15. Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) should be
> self-documenting when possible. In particular, the order of
> parameters in function declarations should be arranged such that
> the size of an array appears before the array. The purpose is to
> allow Variable-Length Array (VLA) notation to be used. This not
> only makes the code's purpose clearer to human readers, but also
> makes static analysis easier. Any new APIs added to the Standard
> should take this into consideration.
I used 'long' for the date parameter, as some uses of the function
need to pass a negative value meaning "never".
FUNCTION BODY:
I didn't check '#ifdef HAVE_STRFTIME', which old definitions did,
since strftime(3) is guaranteed by the C89 standard, and all of
the conversion specifiers that we use are also specified by that
standard, so we don't need any extensions at all.

updated Dutch translation for shadow version 4.8 (pot file from 2019-12-01).
I updated the translation for Debian
and on request of the Debian package maintainer Bálint Réczey I am creating this pull request
Suggesting mode 2770 is dangerous because it makes the binary writeable
by all members of the owning group which is supposed to be normal
end-users. Suggest 2710 instead as is usual for s[ug]id binaries,
allowing execution but neither reading nor writing.

Translate remaining strings to Norwegian bokmål (nb). Also, cure previous translation of excessive anglicism and apply a more consistent use of actual Norwegian syntax.
