This is a boolean option, and if it is specified in a print queue
for a remote host, it causes lpd to resend the data file for each
copy the user requested on 'lpr -#n'. This is useful for network
printers which accept lpd-style jobs, but which ignore the control
file (and thus they ignore any request for multiple copies).

with BDECFLAGS on, mainly by adding 'const' to parameters in a number
of routine declarations. While I'm at it, ANSI-fy all of the routine
declarations. The resulting object code is exactly the same after
this update as before it, with the exception of one unavoidable
change to lpd.o on freebsd/alpha.
Also added $FreeBSD$ line to lpc/extern.h lpc/lpc.h lptest/lptest.c

in lpd. Stat.recv is useful on a printserver, as something of a network
performance-monitoring tool. Stat.send is a minimal accounting record of
sorts for jobs going to tcp/ip based printers.

However, it doesn't check if the remote printer name it
is sending it to is the same as the local printer name,
and so chokes 'cos "laser" is not a real printer.

- Get rid of a lot of the static variables which were shared by
many routines and programs in the suite.
- Create an abstract interface to the printcap database, so that
other retrieval and iteration mechanisms could be developed
(e.g., YP, Hesiod, or automatic retrieval from a trusted server).
- Give each capability a human-readable name in addition to the historic
two-character one.
- Otherwise generally clean up a lot of dark corners. Many still remain.
- When submitting jobs, use the official login name record (from getlogin())
if there is one, rather than reverse-mapping the uid.
More to come...
The removed files are no longer needed, they are actually labelled as
``Use only if you are not 4.4BSD''. (Yeah, the ol' crufty printcap.c
is really gone!)
Properly declare all external objects in files ending in .h, as
opposed to embed them into files ending in .c.
