Authoritate source of sulogin(8)

[Dmitry Bogatov]

Hi!

I just noticed, that we do not install sulogin, which source is present
at `src/sulogin.c'. /sbin/sulogin is provided by bin:util-linux.

According to sulogin(8) from util-linux,

	sulogin was written by Miquel van Smoorenburg for  sysvinit and
	later ported to util-linux by Dave Reisner and Karel Zak.

Difference is quite significant, but I would not call it bloat:

 sulogin.c |  995 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-----------------------------

Jesse, what is your position on this matter? Should versions, bundled
with util-linux and sysvinit be considered forks, or maybe version in
sysvinit could be dropped?

I find current situation quite confusing. Unlike situation with busybox
and coreutils, I do not see ideological reasons to not perform some kind
of unification.
