a machine with aliase ip addresses on the same subnet of an
interfaces' `real' ip addresses would generate <n> duplicate
broadcasts in clnt_broadcast().
Basically, this fix does a purge on the list of bradcast addresses.
- Fix problem described in PR #1079: _gethostbynisaddr() doesn't
work. Make it accept the same arguments as all the other
gethostby*addr() functions and properly convert the supplied IP
address into a text string so that yp_match() can find it in the
hosts.byaddr map.
- Also fix potential memory leak: copy the results of yp_match() to
a static buffer and free the result (yp_match() returns dynamically
allocated memory).
ether_addr.c:
- Since I was in the neighborhood, fix ether_ntohost() and
ether_hostton() so that they don't bogusly for a free(result)
when yp_match() fails.
matter much on some systems, but on ftp servers (like wcarchive) where
you run with special stripped group and pwd.db files in the anonymous
ftp /etc, this can be a major speedup for ls(1).
ss_flags to SS_DISABLE and SS_ONSTACK. SA_ONSTACK is still used in
struct sigaction. Nowhere in our entire source tree could I find a
single place these were used.
reconnect once using the saved openlog() parameters.
This helps one of the system startup race conditions. If syslogd takes too
long to get going, some daemons can fail the connection and forever log
to the console even though the syslogd is running. That is ..unfortunate..
the statically compiled PS_STRINGS and USRSTACK variables. This prevents
programs using setproctitle from coredumping if the kernel VM is increased,
and stops libkvm users (w, ps, etc) from needing to be recompiled if only
the VM layout changes.
explicit that it is global to the entire "session", and that setsid() or
daemon() are need to have been called at some point.
The most notable offender of setlogin() misuse is XFree86's xdm.
for "fts_open" was wrong. Also, the "fts_info" field of the FTSENT
structure was misleadingly described as containing "flags". Actually, it
contains a single integer value.
in the main text of various man pages.
Thanks to Warner Losh for adding an option to manck to allow
it to scan the entire man page looking for bogus xrefs, instead
of just checking the SEE ALSO section.
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)

Also corrected a few minor formatting errors, file location and cross
references in some of the section 3 man pages.
This shuts up a lot of the output from "manck" for section 3.
