        Life is better than I thought the crypto stuff just has it as a fallback
conditional on HAVE_GETUSERSHELL so that uses the one from libc. Which leaves
only sendmail which is similar but for some reason does not have HASGETUSERSHELL
set for FreeBSD (I think - the conf is convoluted).

        Meanwhile I am building with a getusershell(3) that knows how to follow
a #include (it was already looking for # which pushed the bikeshed marginally
that way).
