in the child. This corrects a problem where linux/alpha binaries see
the child's return value of fork as the parent's pid. This happens because
linux/alpha binaries apparently check the return value directly, rather
than looking for a non-zero value in a4, as *BSD & OSF/1 do.

if compiling with -fformat-extensions). Gcc's format checker never
actually supported %q length specifiers. It treats %q as an alias
for %ll, which is correct if quad_t is long long (e.g., on i386's)
and broken otherwise (e.g., on alphas).
quad_t's currently should be printed in the same way that they
already need to be printed to avoid compiler warnings on all
supported systems: cast them to a standard type that is at least
as large (long or long long) and use the length specifier for that
(%l or %ll). This is problematic since long long isn't standard
yet. C9x's intmax_t should be implemented soon.
Don't accept %L length specifiers in the kernel either. The only
legitimate ones are for long doubles, but the kernel doesn't even
support plain doubles. (gcc bogusly accepts %Ld as an alias for
%lld, and it sometimes prints "q" in error messages about "ll" and
"L" length specifiers, becauses it represents all these specifiers
as 'q'.)

- plain %r and %z were disallowed. The hard NULs in the warnings were
hopefully caused by disallowing of plain formats being nonsense.
- new formats for shortening to a byte were allowed, but even the libc
printf doesn't support them.
- old %hr and %hz formats were allowed, but the kernel printf doesn't
support them. The kernel doesn't support %hd either, but this is
harder to fix.

going to remove ppp from the installation options in 5 days if ppp is
still broken, however, as it hasn't worked at installation time
for several weeks now and it's only causing people to fill my mailbox
with questions.
Set ALLLANG to install all the languages, otherwise set DOC_LANG
to just the languages (and encodings) you want to install.
Default to building the html-split (lots of small HTML files, with
links to go between them), html (one big honking HTML file), and plain
text versions of the documentation. Does not compress any of the docs
prior to doing the installation.

Cockups and typos: nik
Make the alias list a SLIST.
Drop the "fast recycling" optimization of vnodes (including
the returning of a prexisting but stale vnode from checkalias).
It doesn't buy us anything now that we don't hardlimit
vnodes anymore.
Rename checkalias2() and checkalias() to addalias() and
addaliasu() - which takes dev_t and udev_t arg respectively.
Make the revoke syscalls use vcount() instead of VALIASED.
Remove VALIASED flag, we don't need it now and it is faster
to traverse the much shorter lists than to maintain the
flag.
vfs_mountedon() can check the dev_t directly, all the vnodes
point to the same one.
Print the devicename in specfs/vprint().
Remove a couple of stale LFS vnode flags.
Remove unimplemented/unused LK_DRAINED;
