`login` from busybox has explicit heuristics to handle CONFIG_MULTIUSER unset (i.e. a kernel without non-root users, groups or capabilities), bringing in the shadow version of `login` causes obscure failures at runtime ("setgid: Function not implemented"), instead exclude it here so anyone who includes it (likely accidentally) will at least get a build time failure.
