getdate: never supplied by the system.

Gnulib and glibc getdate are not synced. There are extensions and bug
fixes in gnulib's getdate that have not been ported to glibc. Therefore,
use of the gnulib module intentionally avoids the glibc getdate at the
moment.

Correction - gnulib getdate provides get_date(), not getdate(), so there is nothing to be synced back to glibc.
