It's a tradeoff. With two copies, there are two copies to maintain
separately. With one copy, that copy is harder to maintain than
either of the two separate copies. Which is easier? It depends on
the case.
For strftime it's probably better to have a single source, as the
incompatibilities between glibc and Emacs are small and are not
intentional.
