retitle 78961 [POST-SARGE] chage should not display "Never" for password expiration date when expirty=0
thanks

The complete analysis of this problem shows that, indeed, the probable
solution is by fixing chage to display an expiration date of "Jan, 1st
1970" instead of "Never" when the /etc/shadow 8th field is 0.

I consider this bug pretty minor, so I lower its severity.

This is also an upstream bug and, of course, we will fix it after
sarge (like all other bugs, probably, but well).
