and forgot what I was trying to do originally and accidently zapped
a feature. :-] The problem is that we are converting a counted buffer in
a malloc pool into a null terminated C-style string. I was calling realloc
originally to shrink the buffer to the desired size. If realloc failed, we
still returned the valid buffer - the only thing wrong was it was a tad
too large. The previous commit disabled this.
This commit now handles the three cases..
1: the buffer is exactly right for the null byte to terminate the
string (we don't call realloc).
2: it's got h.left = 0, so we must expand it to make room. If realloc
fails here, it's fatal.
3: if there's too much room, we realloc to shrink it - a failed realloc
is not fatal, we use the original buffer which is still valid.
so that all these makefiles can be used to build libc_r too.
Added .if ${LIB} == "c" tests to restrict man page builds to libc
to avoid needlessly building them with libc_r too.
Split libc Makefile into Makefile and Makefile.inc to allow the
libc_r Makefile to include Makefile.inc too.
- 0 was returned instead of EOF when an input failure occured while
skipping white-space after 0 assignments. This fixes PR2606. The
diagnosis in PR2606 is wrong.
- EOF was returned instead of 0 when an input failure occurred after
zero assignments and nonzero suppressed assignments.
- EOF was spelled -1.
This should be in 2.2.
a manner consistent with other implementations. Its done in a way that
adds only a tiny amount of overhead when positional arguments are not used.
I also have a test program to go with this, but don't know where it belongs
in the tree.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.

Use the correct .Bx (BSD UNIX) or .At (AT&T UNIX) macros
instead of explicitly specifying the version in the text
in a bunch of man pages.
refilled) a file that was either line- or un-buffered, all files were
flushed. According to the code comment, the flush (according to ANSI)
is supposed to happen on write + line buffered output files, not _all_
files.

- buffer expansions were not working right due to a return code botch.
- signed types instead of size_t's meant somebody else went and put
casts in, I've changed the types to what they should have been.
Added $Id$'s to files that were lacking them (gpalmer), made some
cosmetic changes to conform to style guidelines (bde) and checked
against NetBSD and Lite2 to remove unnecessary divergences (hsu, bde)
One last code cleanup:-
Removed spurious casts in fseek.c and stdio.c.
Added missing function argument in fwalk.c.
Added missing header include in flags.c and rget.c.
Put in casts where int's were being passed as size_t's.
Put in missing prototypes for static functions.
Changed second args of __sflags() inflags.c and writehook() in vasprintf.c
from char * to const char * to conform to prototypes.
This directory now compiles with no warnings with -Wall under
gcc-2.6.3 and with considerably less warnings than before with the
ultra-pedantic script I used for testing. (Most of the remaining ones
are due to const poisoning).
The usual stuff, adding missing function prototypes, argument types,
return values, etc.
This directory now compiles with no warnings with -Wall on gcc2.6.3!

get rid of "extern int errno".
not based on gpl'ed code, just prototype and usage. I'm not 100% certain
they behave the same while the system is in trouble (eg: malloc() failing)
but in those circumstances all bets would be off anyway.
These routines work like sprintf() and vsprintf(), except that instead of
using a fixed buffer, they allocate memory and return it to the user
and it's the user's responsibility to free() it. They have allocate as
much memory as they need (and can get), so the size of strings it can deal
with is limited only by the amount of memory it can malloc() on your
behalf.
There are a few gpl'ed programs starting to use this interface, and it's
becoming more common with the scares about security risks with sprintf().
I dont like the look of the code that the various programs (including
cvs, gdb, libg++, etc) provide if configure can't find it on the system.
It should be possible to modify the stdio core code to provide this
interface more efficiently, I was more worried about having something
that worked and was secure. :-) (I noticed that there was once intended
to be a smprintf() routine when our stdio was written for 4.4BSD, but it
looks pretty stillborn, and it's intended interface is not clear). Since
Linux and gnu libc have this interface, it seemed silly to bring yet
another one onto the scene.
nonstandard normal version and the standard threaded version.
Removed a bogus L in a constant. fpos_t's aren't longs, and casting to
fpos_t would be verbose.
the precision; ANSI X3J11 is not crystal clear but certainly says
that the precision specifies the number of /digits/, and signs
and "0x" aren't really digits.
NetBSD already has a similar patch.
resides in read-only memory is going to cause the program to core dump,
and this is commmon with older pre-ANSI C programs.
(I've scratched my head over this one at 3 in the morning before
while trying to port some ancient program)
