an auto stack variable that was about to disappear. It broke with some
nis passwd changes because of a gethostbyname() call that uses a fair bit
of stack.. This was a timebomb waiting to go off at any time and could
have been causing subtle corruption for a while.
AARGH!!
This is HIGHLY reccomended for 2.2 and presumably 2.1.6
heck. Watch through our hidden camera, ladies and gentlemen,
as this one-line addition to the syslog output generates hundreds
of thousands of lines of email in response, all from people
decrying the evils of electronic noise pollution! :-)
What this change does, simply speaking, is syslog it every time
someone changes their local password. I need this at a local ISP to
tell whether people are reacting to expires in a timely fashion or
not. To disable it, uncomment -DLOGGING in the Makefile.
If your users change their passwords so often as to fill your logfile,
then you may also have another administrative problem to deal with.
Do not exit with status 0 if mkdep(1) cannot create output,
e.g. if .depend is not writable or the FS is readonly mounted.
Store arguments as comments for debugging purpose.
after I installed the last SNAP :). Because of the way the 'use NIS
or local?' logic is set up here, it was possible to force the use
of the NIS password changer even though the specified user didn't exist
in NIS (i.e. # passwd foo, where foo is a local-only user). In this
case, we fall intp yp_passwd() without the corresponding yp_password
structure being filled in, which leads to an NULL pointer dereference.
Also fixed the logic like I just did with chpass so that if the user
is both in NIS and the local password database, the program makes a
more sensible guess as to which one to use (if NIS is turned on in
/etc/master.passwd, then use NIS, else default to local).
enabled in /etc/master.passwd & friends. This allows the 'USER_YP_AND_LOCAL'
case to make a more sensible guess (if NIS is enabled, default to NIS,
otherwise default to local -- this is better than defaulting to NIS
all the time).
Machine come and go...

For definitions without an "nc" entry, some parts have now been
mis-detected as `non-comment'. Avoid this by not converting the
noregexp in case the "nc" capability has not been found. I begin to
wonder why things like missing "ab"/"ae"'s do work at all...

When you ask pr to use form feeds at the end of pages and specify a page
length and tell pr to not put the fancy headers and footers on each
pages, then pr will not separate the pages with a form feed.

types being on the same line as the function name, this finally closes
PR # bin/1785. Also allow :: and ~ as part of the function name, for
C++.
Still, C++ operator overloading will not be recognized as a valid
function name. Fixing this would require a major overhaul of the \p
recognition parser.
. correct a typo in regexp.c,
. implement a new "nc" (non-comment) feature to describe exceptions from
the comment detection; there were problems in Perl with the $# operator
that could not be solved by any other means,
. prevent blocklevel from becoming negative (due to earlier misdetected
sequences), this is probably a workaround for the problem described
in PR # bin/1785,
. update the Perl description to use the "nc" feature,
. update the man page for the "nc" and the undocumented "ab"/"ae"
features.
for the GPROF4 case. This allows a simpler method to be used for
non-statistical profiling (it allows overhead adjustments to be
subtracted from one counter without harm if that counter goes
negative; otherwise the adjustment would have to be distributed).
32 bit counters were already too small for GPROF4 with a 200MHz
clock. int64_t counters should be used.

For now use: <brandelf -t Linux linuxbin> to brand, and just
<brandelf> to verify branding on a ELF file. FreeBSD native is
set with <brandelf -t FreeBSD freebsdbin>.
Old locate(1) programs still works with the new database format, print
some garbage for 8 bit characters, but don't core (maybe except char 30).
7-Bit Puritan should not notice any difference. Same speed,
Same database size if the database contain only ASCII characters.

goes to a fair degree of trouble to enable something like this to
be safe: cd /tmp && find . -mtime +7 -delete
It removes both files and directories. It does not attempt to remove
immutable files (an earlier version I showed to a few people did a chflags
and tried to blow away even immutable files. Too risky..)
It is thought to be safe because it forces the fts(3) driven descent to
only do "minimal risk" stuff. specifically, -follow is disabled, it does
checking to see that it chdir'ed to the directory it thought it was
going to, it will *not* pass a pathname with a '/' character in it to
unlink(), so it should be totally immune to symlink tree races. If it runs
into something "fishy", it bails out rather than blunder ahead.. It's better
to do that if somebody is trying to compromise security rather than risk
giving them an opportunity. Since the unlink()/rmdir() is being called
from within the current working directory during the tree descent, there
are no fork/exec overheads or races.
As a side effect of this paranoia, you cannot do a
"find /somewhere/dir -delete", as the last argument to rmdir() is
"/somewhere/dir", and the checking won't allow it. Besides, one would use
rm -rf for that case anyway. :-)

known to printf(3) and then used printf() to format it... The only
problem what the #define printf out1fmt. The code was behaving differently
when run as a shell builtin since out1fmt() isn't printf(3).
Simple hack. Print to a buffer and fputs (also #defined for sh) the
result. This should fix the printf builtin problem in PR#1673, rather
than leaving the call commented out. (printf.o was being statically linked
in anyway, we might as well use it)

having the same effect, and install a link for this. There is
historic precedence for the command hd(1) (with roughly that output
format) in Xenix, SCO, and a few SysV's that tooks the idea.
Also, added a couple of spaces to the -C format to make the output
better readable.

Also remove a unnecessary test for c == '\n', since the
loop (in ParseSkipLine) will not terminate unless
c == '\n' || c == EOF, and the EOF case is already
explicted handled by a return statement.
