string to u_long and back using two functions, flags_to_string and
string_to_flags, which co-existed with 'ls'. As time has progressed
more and more other tools have used these private functions to
manipulate the file flags.
Recently I moved these functions from /usr/src/bin/ls to libutil,
but after some discussion with bde it's been decided that they
really ought to go in libc.
There are two already existing libc functions for manipulating file
modes: setmode and getmode. In keeping with these flags_to_string
has been renamed getflags and string_to_flags to setflags.
The manual page could probably be improved upon ;)
The way is now open to schg and sappnd key files and directories in
our tree. There are recommendations in bin/15229.

time. This caused differences in the nanosecond portion of the time to
screwup the logic and made mtree think it should compare the modtime even
though "time" wasn't specified. The end result is that mtree couldn't deal
with procfs because procfs sets the mtime with high accuracy via microtime().
2. Clean up code so it compiles -Wall (except for sccsid's and copyright).
This included fixing several printf formats that where not correct,
and changing the data types of a few things.
3. Implement new option -i that produces indented mtree output files.
4. Implement new option -n that turns off directory comments.
5. Only emit /set records if something has changed since the last one.
