The useradd application resets the user data in /var/log/faillog, if it
exists and a new user is created.
pam_tally2 is used in many distributions.
Check for /var/log/tallylog and reset the user there.

Otherwise we get build warnings like:
sgroupio.c:255:6: warning: implicit declaration of function 'getdef_bool' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
shadowio.c:131:6: warning: implicit declaration of function 'getdef_bool' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
Enable the automake feature to produce silent output by default.
When compiling code, we now see things like:
$ make
CC addgrps.o
CC age.o
CC audit_help.o
...
This can be disabled via configure's --disable-silent-rules or
by passing V=1 to make.
Custom output (like in the man subdirs) don't (yet) respect this
feature. More work will be needed to clean those up.
Since xz is fairly common nowadays, and is typically smaller/faster than
bzip2 for people to decompress, switch shadow over too. We also merge
the two init locations into configure.ac to match newer autotools style.
The min automake version is bumped to 1.11 too since that's when xz was
released.
The autoconf/automake guys want AC_INIT to be passed the details of the
package directly rather than going through AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE. Update them
both to use the newer style.
This also allows us to pass in contact details for the project.
We set the minimum autoconf version to 2.64 as that's the first one to
support passing the homepage URL in to AC_INIT. That's a pretty old
release by now, so it shouldn't be a problem.
These assignments were pasted as is into the Makefile and
ended up as part of a rule. (Usually the .PRECIOUS rule
which is why the build system never attempted to execute it
as commands, hiding the problem.)
