dynamically linked. This has been a long time coming with the move of
critical libraries from /usr/lib to /lib. If you don't feel comfortable
with dynamically linked binaries in your root partition, now is the
time to define NO_DYNAMICROOT in your make.conf.

accurate reporting of multi-terabyte filesystem sizes.
You should build and boot a new kernel BEFORE doing a `make world'
as the new kernel will know about binaries using the old statfs
structure, but an old kernel will not know about the new system
calls that support the new statfs structure. Running an old kernel
after a `make world' will cause programs such as `df' that do a
statfs system call to fail with a bad system call.

do only unlink the file if we could indeed overwrite the file.
Old behaviour: rm -P /tmp/foo (foo mode 0444) would NOT overwrite foo,
but still delete it (with a warning: rm: foo: Permission denied)
New behaviour: Just the EPERM warning, but no deletion

rm_overwrite() (for rm -P).
2. Print the file name in the error message for (fatal) malloc() failures
in rm_overwrite(). I first thought that malloc() failures should be
non-fatal since they don't prevent proceeding the the next file, but
making them non-fatal would normally give too much output for rm -Pr
on a large tree in the unlikely event that even one occurs, since the
malloc()ed amounts are usually the same. Just print the file name since
the malloc()ed amounts are not always the same and it doesn't hurt to
know where rm was when it quit.

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
when grepping for JOBS. The recent style cleanup replaced the space with
a tab and broke job control detection. Little edits, disastrous consequences.

WITH_DYNAMICROOT, which will toggle the generation of dynamically-linked
binaries for installation in /bin and /sbin. It is currently off,
meaning that /bin and /sbin are still statically linked by default.
If something goes wrong (which I hope doesn't), this is what /rescue is
all about. Please do not try to use WITH_DYNAMICROOT and NO_RESCUE to
save space or some other equally silly reason. If you do and end up
having problems, you have been warned.
tools such as chmod(1) and ls(1) when it comes to acting on objects
that have POSIX.1e extended ACLs. Specifically, discuss the
substitution of the mask entry for the group entry in the mode
representation of the ACL. Differently worded from the submission,
and could probably use further refinement.

- Removed dead declarations
- Made objects that should have been declared as static, static.
The changes use STATIC instead of static, following the existing

is a style bug at best. When the variable isn't a flag, it potentially
overflows after a large number of settings. Here the number of settings
is limited by ARG_MAX, but the variable is the exit code so it became
bogus after the second setting and effectively overflowed to 0 after
approx. 128 settings.
Fixed some style bugs involving comments in and near previous commit.
Clarification of previous commit message: df -t didn't give undefined
behaviour, and the behaviour used to conform perfectly with the man
page, since the buggy behaviour is documented in the BUGS section. -t
just worked when no files or file systems were specified, and was just
ignored if a file or file system was specified.
