Correct a bug that should have wreaked havoc everywhere, but for
some reason only bit unlucky people who use `-march' optimizations.
The compiler cannot assist one in distinguishing between the two
function calls below.

nsdispatch(&discard, ...); /* correct .. no, really! */

An incorrectly-sized allocation was being made due to an incorrect
argument to the `sizeof' operator. Obvious, because it violated the
`foo = malloc(sizeof(*foo))' idiom. Hard-to-see, because it was a
missing `*' (`*p' versus `**p').

= Re-implement the traditional getpwent(3)/getgrent(3) functions on
top of the thread-safe versions.
= Update the on-disk format of the hashed version of the passwd(5)
databases to allow for versioned entries. The legacy version is
`3'. (Don't ask.)
= Add support for version `4' entries in the passwd(5) database.
Entries in this format are identical to version 3 entries except
that all integers are stored as 32-bit integers in network byte
order (big endian).
= pwd_mkdb is updated to generate both version 3 and version 4
entries.

- Remove some unnecessary code in the parsing of precision specifiers.
- We used to round long double arguments to double. Now we print
them properly.
- Bugs involving '%F', corner cases of '#' and 'g' format
specifiers, and the '.*' precision specifier have been
fixed.
- Added support for the "'" specifier to print thousands' grouping
characters in a locale-dependent manner.
- Implement the __vfprintf() side of hexadecimal floating point
support. All that is still needed is a routine to convert the
mantissa to hex digits one nibble at a time in the style of ultoa().

- __vfprintf()'s 'buf' has never been used for floating point, so
don't define it in terms of (incorrect) constants describing
floating point numbers. The actual size needed depends on
sizeof(uintmax_t) and locale details, so I slightly overestimated.
- We don't need a 308-character buffer to store the string "308".
With long doubles and %a we need more than three characters, though.
strange things might happen when garbage values in the struct
get passed in to localtime_r() and family.
