DragonFly couldn't build GNU Sharutils. Upon inspection, it was seen
that the last version in pkgsrc was at least 11 years old. This commit
updates the GNU Sharutils to the latest version without patches.
Tested on DragonFly and NetBSD. The Linux condition dealing with the
glibc gettext workaround was removed with the assumption that this is
no longer needed, but somebody else should test and verify this.
