c71e7861ed * man/passwd.1.xml: passwd cannot change the full name of the
user, the user's login shell; but it can change the account or
	password validity period. Thanks to Reuben Thomas.

1355d5d3eb * NEWS, src/passwd.c: For compatibility with other passwd version,
the --lock an --unlock options do not lock or unlock the user
	account anymore.  They only lock or unlock the user's password.
	* man/passwd.1.xml: Document above change. Document how an account
	can be locked and what a password lock means.
