demanded by POSIX.
- A redirection error is only fatal (meaning the execution of a shell script is
terminated) for special built-ins. Previously it was fatal for all shell
builtins, causing problems like the one reported in PR 88845.
- Variable assignments remain in effect for special built-ins.
- Option or operand errors are only fatal for special built-ins.
This change also makes errors from 'fc' non-fatal (I could not find any reasons
for this behaviour).
Somewhat independently from the above down-grade the error handling in the
shift built-in if the operand is bigger than $# from an error() call (which is
now fatal) to a return 1. I'm not sure if this should be considered a POSIX
"operand error", however this change is needed for now as we trigger that error
while building libncurses. Comparing with other shells, zsh does the same as
our sh before this change (write a diagnostic, return 1), bash behaves as our
sh after this commit (no diagnostic, return 1) and ksh93 and NetBSD's sh treat
it as a fatal error.
considered an error according to the Open Group Base Specification.

- Removed dead declarations
- Made objects that should have been declared as static, static.
The changes use STATIC instead of static, following the existing
convention in the rest of the code.

o Old-style K&R declarations have been converted to new C89 style
o register has been removed
o prototype for main() has been removed (gcc3 makes it an error)
o int main(int argc, char *argv[]) is the preferred main definition.
o Attempt to not break style(9) conformance for declarations more than
they already are.
o Change
int
foo() {
...
to
int
foo(void)
{
...
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
face of aliases. Note, bash doesn't do aliases while running scripts, but
"real" ksh does..
Also:
Reduce redundant .Nm macros in (unused) bltin/echo.1
nuke error2, it's hardly used.
More -Wall cleanups
dont do certain history operations if NO_HISTORY defined
handle quad_t's from resource limits

merge of parallel duplicate work by Steve Price and myself. :-]
There are some changes to the build that are my fault... mkinit.c was
trying (poorly) to duplicate some of the work that make(1) is designed to
do. The Makefile hackery is my fault too, the depend list was incomplete
because of some explicit OBJS+= entries, so mkdep wasn't picking up their
source file #includes.
This closes a pile of /bin/sh PR's, but not all of them..
