When compiled without PAM support, su(1) fails silently when the user enters a
wrong password; in earlier versions, a "Sorry" message was printed, which was
removed a while ago.

This patch adds a new message again, which is consistent with the behaviour of
passwd(1) when a user enters a wrong password.

Note that since the message is the same as in passwd(1), no new strings are
introduced for translation.
