libfetch features (fetchRestartCalls, fetchXGet()).
Since it doesn't make much sense to have m_flag and r_flag set at the same
time, and it can actually cause trouble in some cases, die if they're both
set.
Set the SA_RESETHAND flag for SIGINT so that when we've caught one, we can
kill ourselves with a second SIGINT (thus notifying our parent of our tragic
fate) instead of just exiting.
These changes fix several problems that would show up when fetching ports,
as well as speeding up HTTP transfers quite a bit (at least for relatively
small files).
Most of these changes were prompted by an interaction problem with an HTTP
server called SWS-1.0, which exhibited two bugs, the first of which prevented
fetch from working around the second (the first was not sending content-type
in reply to HEAD requests, the second was sending garbage after the end of
the requested file).
fetchStat*(). In most cases, either fetchGet*() or fetchXGet*() is a wrapper
around the other; in all cases, calling fetchGet*() is identical to calling
fetchXGet*() with the second argument set to NULL.
outside the loop inspects it to determine whether or not we succeeded in
retrieving the requested document. This fixes a bug where fetchGetHTTP()
would return a FILE with an invalid file descriptor if it hit the redirect
limit without locating the requested document.
or not interrupted system calls will be restarted. This fixes a bug where
fetch(1) would hang (potentially forever) if a server stopped responding,
because the signal handler would absorb the user's efforts to interrupt the
transfer.
some reason, mboot.bootinst is not initialized to NULL at the beginning
of the program, then the last commit to this would try to free whatever
bogus address is in it.
- Restore the behavior of free()'ing the mboot.bootinst buffer after we
abuse it to determine the sector size of the disk (as clearly noted in
the comments). Properly fix the double free() bug by setting the pointer
to NULL after we free it.

lock against themselves, causing infinite spinning. Brian Feldman
found this problem when testing with Mozilla and supplied the fix,
which I have revised slightly.
Here is the failure scenario. A thread calls dlopen() and acquires
the writer lock. While the thread still holds the lock, a signal
is delivered and caught. The signal handler tries to call a function
which hasn't been bound yet. It thus enters the dynamic linker
and tries to acquire the reader lock. Since the writer lock is
already held, it will spin forever in the signal handler. The
thread holding the lock won't be able to progress and release the
lock.
The solution is to block almost all signals while holding the
exclusive lock.
A similar problem could conceivably occur in the opposite order.
Namely, a thread is holding the reader lock and then a signal
handler calls dlopen() or dlclose() and spins waiting for the writer
lock. We deal with this administratively by proclaiming that signal
handlers aren't allowed to call dlopen() or dlclose(). Actually
we don't have to proclaim a thing, since signal handlers aren't
allowed to call any system functions except those which are explicitly
permitted.

This will be used in the reboot "reseeder", coming in another

your randomness is compromised; something like

it was converted to a enumerated list instead.
