This commit eliminates 117 false positive bug reports of the form
"allocate memory; error out if pointer is NULL; use pointer".
- Issue a single writev(2) call instead of multiple write(2)s.
This change improves the inefficiencies introduced when echo
went on an stdio diet.
The following figures are for echoing 1000 arguments.
original stdio-based echo:
0.01 real 0.01 user 0.00 sys
before:
0.05 real 0.00 user 0.04 sys
after:
0.01 real 0.00 user 0.00 sys
o Old-style K&R declarations have been converted to new C89 style
o register has been removed
o prototype for main() has been removed (gcc3 makes it an error)
o int main(int argc, char *argv[]) is the preferred main definition.
o Attempt to not break style(9) conformance for declarations more than
they already are.
o gc some #ifdef sun ... #endif code
Approved by: arch@, new style(9)
commit and those which cause ugly nroff output have been fixed, since
the purpose of the style guideline which they contravene is to reduce
the sizes of deltas.

* Consistently misspell built-in as builtin.
* Add a builtin(1) manpage and create builtin(1) MLINKS for all shell
builtin commands for which no standalone utility exists. These MLINKS
replace those that were created for csh(1).
* Add appropriate xrefs for builtin(1) to the csh(1) and sh(1) manpages,
as well as to the manpages of standalone utilities which are supported
as shell builtin commands in at least one of the shells. In such
manpages, explain that similar functionality may be provided as a
shell builtin command.
* Improve sh(1)'s description of the cd builtin command. Csh(1) already
describes it adequately. Replace the cd(1) manpage with a builtin(1)
MLINKS link.
* Clean up some mdoc problems: use Xr instead of literal "foo(n)"; use
Ic instead of Xr for shell builtin commands.
* Undo English contractions.

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.
