* In {(...) <redir1;} <redir2, do not drop redir1.
* Maintain the difference between (...) <redir and {(...)} <redir:
In (...) <redir, the redirection is performed in the child, while in
{(...)} <redir it should be performed in the parent (like {(...); :;}
<redir)
POSIX requires this and it is simpler than the previous code that remembered
command locations when appending directories to PATH.
In particular,
PATH=$PATH
is no longer a no-op but discards all cached command locations.
If execve() returns an [ENOEXEC] error, check if the file is binary before
trying to execute it using sh. A file is considered binary if at least one
of the first 256 bytes is '\0'.
In particular, trying to execute ELF binaries for the wrong architecture now
fails with an "Exec format error" message instead of syntax errors and
potentially strange results.
When a foreground job exits on a signal, a message is printed to stdout
about this. The buffer was not flushed after this which could result in the
message being written to the wrong file if the next command was a builtin
and had stdout redirected.
Example:
sh -c 'kill -9 $$'; : > foo; echo FOO:; cat foo

This is useful so that it is easier to exit on a signal than to reset the
trap to default and resend the signal. It matches ksh93. POSIX says that
'exit' without args from a trap action uses the exit status from the last
command before the trap, which is different from 'exit $?' and matches this
if the previous command is assumed to have exited on the signal.
If the signal is SIGSTOP, SIGTSTP, SIGTTIN or SIGTTOU, or if the default
action for the signal is to ignore it, a normal _exit(2) is done with exit
status 128+signal_number.
* Make 'trap --' do the same as 'trap' instead of nothing.
* Make '--' stop option processing (note that '-' action is not an option).
Side effect: The error message for an unknown option is different.
When running with a custom locale setup, it's easy to confuse the
date regression tests and cause them to fail, e.g. when LANG='C'
but LC_ALL='el_GR.UTF-8'. Set LC_ALL to 'C', which overrides all
other LC_xxx options, to avoid this sort of problem.

All builtins are now always found before a PATH search.
Most ash derivatives have an undocumented feature where the presence of an
entry "%builtin" in $PATH will cause builtins to be checked at that point of
the PATH search, rather than before looking at any directories as documented
in the man page (very old versions do document this feature).
I am removing this feature from sh, as it complicates the code, may violate
expectations (for example, /usr/bin/alias is very close to a forkbomb with
PATH=/usr/bin:%builtin, only /usr/bin/builtin not being another link saves
it) and appears to be unused (all the %builtin google code search finds is
in some sort of ash source code).
Note that aliases and functions took and take precedence above builtins.
Because aliases work on a lexical level they can only ever be overridden on
a lexical level (quoting or preceding 'builtin' or 'command'). Allowing
override of functions via PATH does not really fit in the model of sh and it
would work differently from %builtin if implemented.
Note: POSIX says special builtins are found before functions. We comply to
this because we do not allow functions with the same name as a special
builtin.

It should use the original exit status, just like falling off the
end of the trap handler.
Outside an EXIT trap, 'exit' is still equivalent to 'exit $?'.
- Sort the includes of pack.c, moving sys/*.h files near the top.
- Add a couple of missing #include lines, and remove the need for
custom -include options in the CFLAGS of the test Makefile.
- Remove the ad-hoc 'all' target, but keep its 'regress' bits for
testing.
- Convert the ad-hoc 'clean' target to proper CLEANFILES stuff,
so that the normal bsd.prog.mk machinery can clean up.
- Use `make -V .OBJDIR' to detect the place where 'pack' lives,
so that regress.t works both with and without 'make obj'.

An error message is written, the builtin is not executed, nonzero exit
status is returned but the shell does not abort.
This was already checked for special builtins and external commands, with
the same consequences except that the shell aborts for special builtins.
Obtained from: NetBSD
Change the criterion for builtins to be safe to execute in the same process
in optimized command substitution from a blacklist of only cd, . and eval to
a whitelist.
This avoids clobbering the main shell environment such as by $(exit 4) and
$(set -x).
The builtins jobid, jobs, times and trap can still show information not
available in a child process; this is deliberately permitted. (Changing
traps is not.)
For some builtins, whether they are safe depends on the arguments passed to
them. Some of these are always considered unsafe to keep things simple; this
only harms efficiency a little in the rare case they are used alone in a
command substitution.
Before considering to execute a command substitution in the same process,
check if any of the expansions may have a side effect; if so, execute it in
a new process just like happens if it is not a single simple command.
Although the check happens at run time, it is a static check that does not
depend on current state. It is triggered by:
- expanding $! (which may cause the job to be remembered)
- ${var=value} default value assignment
- assignment operators in arithmetic
- parameter substitutions in arithmetic except ${#param}, $$, $# and $?
- command substitutions in arithmetic
This means that $((v+1)) does not prevent optimized command substitution,
whereas $(($v+1)) does, because $v might expand to something containing
assignment operators.
Scripts should not depend on these exact details for correctness. It is also
imaginable to have the shell fork if and when a side effect is encountered
or to create a new temporary namespace for variables.
Due to the $! change, the construct $(jobs $!) no longer works. The value of
$! should be stored in a variable outside command substitution first.
This test verifies that certain expansions without side effects do not
cause the command substitution to be executed in a child process.
This is not a correctness requirement, but it involves a nontrivial amount
of code and it would be unfortunate if it stopped working.
Command substitutions consisting of a single simple command are executed in
the main shell process but this should be invisible apart from performance
and very few exceptions such as $(trap).
If a command substitution consists of one special builtin and there is a
redirection error, this should not abort the outer shell.
It was fixed in r201366 by ignoring special builtin properties for command
substitutions consisting of one builtin.
The #define for warnx now behaves much like the libc function (except that
it uses sh command name and output).
Also, it now uses C99 __VA_ARGS__ so there is no need for three different
macros for 0, 1 or 2 parameters.
Constants in arithmetic starting with 0 should be octal only.
This avoids the following highly puzzling result:
$ echo $((018-017))
3
by making it an error instead.
The CTLESC byte to protect a special character was output before instead of
after a newline directly preceding the special character.
The special handling of newlines is because command substitutions discard
all trailing newlines.
