I got tired of see ``UNIX System Managers Manual''
NOTE: There still a couple of UNIXs left in here. There deal with the
documents. We may want to change there also, even though VERY little of there
even pertain to FreeBSD.
instead of the uninitialized one $(DEVICE).
I hoped these changes would fix some of the large runtime macro processing
bugs, but they seem to only fix some small build-time macro substitution
bugs. E.g., `man ms' now tells you to invoke groff with the flags `-ms'
instead of the bogus flags `-m'; `man groff now tells you that the default
device is `ps' instead of the bogus device `'.
shared library. Formerly, the message looked like this:
ld.so: run: libjdp1.so.1.0: Undefined error: 0
The new message looks like this:
ld.so: run: Can't find shared library "libjdp1.so.1.0"
(Where "run" is the name of the program being executed.)

symbols.
An easy example to see this is to develop an X program which links
against Xt, but doesn't add -lX11 to the link line. It will link fine,
but cause run-time errors by ld.so because of missing symbols used by Xt
defined in X11. This patch makes the errors more readable.

in the diff. This makes it so that diffs containing files in different
subdirectories that have the same name not patch the same file. For example
a diff with patches to Makefile, des/Makefile, usr.bin/Makefile would attempt
to patch Makefile three times.
"update -jHEAD" when a file has been added on the specified tag.
It doesn't actually make cvs 'handle' it, it just stops it from dying
and leaving stray locks and other wreckage.
This was suggested by the CVS maintainers, and is in cvs-1.5.1-950901.
1: It stops invalid files being created in the cvs tree
2: It stops the import from aborting without mailing a commit message..
The first is simple, it opens the file for reading before touching the
repository, and the second catches the pieces when it hits an unreadable
file rather than just aborting mid-way through, leaving the repository in
a bit mess.

LINK_SPEC. This solves a problem with the f77 frontend where
aproviding the -r8 option (use REAL*8) caused `cc' to ``forget'' to
pass the entry point to the linker.

Since there is an open problem report (gnu/289) for this it might be
of interest for (some of) you.
I (Joerg) have also added a minor hack that makes info recognizing a

bootparam_prot.x was changed for nfsv3 but bootparamd and callbootd
kept using the old version which fortunately failed at build time.
Copying hasn't been necessary since path handling was fixed in

on dlclose. Also correctly call constructors and destructors for libraries
linked with /usr/lib/c++rt0.o.
Change interpretation of dlopen manpage to call _init() rather than init()
for dlopened objects.
Change c++rt0.o to avoid using atexit to call destructors, allowing dlclose to
call destructors when an object is unloaded.
Change interface between crt0 and ld.so to allow crt0 to call a function on
exit to call destructors for shared libraries explicitly.
These changes are backwards compatible. Old binaries will work with the new
ld.so and new binaries will work with the old ld.so. A version number has
been introduced in the crt0-ld.so interface to allow for future changes.

cpio/copyout.c:
Don't output a file if the major, minor or totality of its rdev would be
truncated. Print a message about the skipped files to stderr but don't
report the error in the exit status. cpio's abysmal error handling doesn't
allow continuing after an error, and the rdev checks had to be misplaced
to avoid the problem of returning an error code from routines that return
void.
pax/pax.h:
Use the system macros for major(), minor() and makedev().
pax already checks _all_ output conversions for overflow. This has the
undesirable effect that failure to convert relatively useless fields
such as st_dev for regular files causes files not to be output. pax
doesn't report exactly which fields couldn't be converted.
tar/create.c:
Don't output a file if the major or minor its rdev would be truncated.
Print a message about the skipped files to stderr and report the error
in the exit status.
tar/tar.c:
For not immediately fatal errors, exit with status 1, not the error count
(mod 256).
All:
Minor numbers are limited to 21 bits in pax's ustar format and to 18
bits in archives created by gnu tar (gnu tar wastes 3 bits for padding).
pax's and cpio's ustar format is incompatible with gnu tar's ustar
format for other reasons (see cpio/README).
now safely add a line like
ldconfig -m ${PREFIX}/lib

directories the user may have added.
