time_t isn't necessarily unsigned (in fact, it's likely to be signed.
Therefore, parse the number as the right type, via a2i(time_t, ...).
Still, reject negative numbers, just to be cautious. It was done
before (strtoull_noneg()), so it shouldn't be a problem. (However,
strtoull_noneg() was only introduced recently, and before that we called
strtoull(3), which silently accepted negative values.)
Remove the limitation of ULONG_MAX, which seems arbitrary. It probably
was written in times where 'time_t' had the same length of 'long', and
this was thus a test that the value didn't overflow 'time_t'. Such a
test is implicit in the a2i() call, so forget about it.
Unify the error messages into a single one that provides all the info
(except the value of 'fallback').

shadow-utils
Introduction
The shadow-utils package includes the necessary programs for converting UNIX password files to the shadow password format, plus programs for managing user and group accounts. The pwconv command converts passwords to the shadow password format. The pwunconv command unconverts shadow passwords and generates a passwd file (a standard UNIX password file). The pwck command checks the integrity of password and shadow files. The lastlog command prints out the last login times for all users. The useradd, userdel, and usermod commands are used for managing user accounts. The groupadd, groupdel, and groupmod commands are used for managing group accounts.
