an int constant to a long constant. This change improves consistency
in the following two ways:
1. The first 8 arguments are always passed in registers on ia64, which
by virtue of the generated code implicitly widens ints to longs and
allows the use of an 32-bit integral type for 64-bit arguments.
Subsequent arguments are passed onto the memory stack, which does
not exhibit the same behaviour and consequently do not allow this.
In practice this means that variadic functions taking pointers
and given NULL (without cast) work as long as the NULL is passed
in one of the first 8 arguments. A SIGSEGV is more likely the
result if such would be done for stack-based arguments. This is
due to the fact that the upper 4 bytes remain undefined.
2. All 64-bit platforms that FreeBSD supports, with the obvious
exception of ia64, allow 32-bit integral types (specifically NULL)
when 64-bit pointers are expected in variadic functions by way of
how the compiler generates code. As such, code that works correctly
(whether rightfully so or not) on any platform other than ia64, may
fail on ia64.
To more easily allow tweaking of the definition of NULL, this commit
removes the 12 definitions in the various headers and puts it in a
new header that can be included whenever NULL is to be made visible.
This commit fixes GNOME, emacs, xemacs and a whole bunch of ports
that I don't particularly care about at this time...
called <machine/_types.h>.
o <machine/ansi.h> will continue to live so it can define MD clock
macros, which are only MD because of gratuitous differences between
architectures.
o Change all headers to make use of this. This mainly involves
changing:
#ifdef _BSD_FOO_T_
typedef _BSD_FOO_T_ foo_t;
#undef _BSD_FOO_T_
#endif
to:
#ifndef _FOO_T_DECLARED
typedef __foo_t foo_t;
#define _FOO_T_DECLARED
#endif

strftime(3) for IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 compliance and remove
excessive usage of the 'const' qualifier that was neither
present in the prototype in the publice header, nor in the
local prototype just above the function definition.
- Replace the K&R function definition with a ANSI-C one.
- Update the prototype of strftime(3) in its manual page.
Since they were never documented and have never appeared in a FreeBSD
release, no repo-copy of the header is done. This removes namespace
pollution from <time.h>.

time_to_xxx() and xxx_to_time() functions. e.g. _time_to_xxx()
instead of time_to_xxx(), to make it more obvious that these are
stopgap functions & placemarkers and not meant to create a defacto
standard. They will eventually be replaced when a real standard
comes out of committee.
serve two purposes: (1) so we can maintain backwards compatibility with
protocols (rwhod, dump, etc...) that either assume time_t is 32 bits or
assume sizeof(time_t) == sizeof(int), or make other similar assumptions.
(2) To tag such routines (by the presence of these calls) for future
cleanup/extension work.
The 32->64 routine, time32_to_time() (when time_t is 64 bits, that is),
is defined specifically to implement temporal locality to properly set the
msb bits of a 64 bit time_t quantity, using the 50 year rule. The locality
code has not been implemented yet (and doesn't need to be for a while),
but that is the intent. This will allow us to maintain backwards protocol
compatibility past 2038.
These routines are intended to be platform and time_t agnostic.

_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING options to work. Changes:
Change all "posix4" to "p1003_1b". Misnamed files are left
as "posix4" until I'm told if I can simply delete them and add
new ones;
Add _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING system calls for FreeBSD and Linux;
Add man pages for _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING system calls;
Add options to LINT;
Minor fixes to P1003_1B code during testing.

The common localization functions between strptime(3) and strftime(3)

conflict with the kernel visible one. Make the new stuff not visible if
_ANSI_SOURCE or _POSIX_SOURCE is defined (!) because the new things are
not part of the base 1003.1-1990 standard (or ansi).
Define CLK_TCK only if _ANSI_SOURCE is not defined.
Don't include <machine/limits.h> to get the definition of CLK_TCK.
CLK_TCK should never have been defined there, and the inclusion
polluted the namespace.
