forthcoming. This commit also has a number of style(9) fixes and
minor corrections so the code works better with the build system being
used for non-FreeBSD builds.
Many thanks to: Jaakko Heinonen, who proposed a mechanism for extended
attribute support and implemented both the machine-independent portion
and the Linux-specific portion.
(combine with existing seconds-based), treat '-' as punctuation rather
than a negative number indicator (eliminates several special cases),
use a single list of special words instead of several separate lists,
use table-driven abbreviation logic (eliminate duplicate word entries
and special-case abbreviation and plural handling). The result is
shorter, simpler (judging from comments, earlier maintainers didn't
understand the special handling for "negative years"), handles more
cases (e.g., "tu" is now a recognized abbreviation for "tuesday",
"3rd" is now equivalent to "third") and it has 2 fewer shift/reduce
conflicts.
switches to support selecting files by time of modification.
Special thanks to: Steven M. Bellovin, Rich $alz, and Jim Berets,
authors of the public-domain getdate.y date-parsing code.
