8e0cd68ff4 Correct history for Unix 2nd Edition through 6th Edition for the
system calls. Man pages are missing for v2 and v5, so any entries for
those versions were inferred by new implementations of these functions
in libc.

fbbd9655e5 Renumber copyright clause 4
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

745b20f712 The previous delta duplicated a significant amount of information
already found in the sigaction(2) manual.

As discussed with the committer of that delta, cross-reference the list
in sigaction(2) instead of duplicating the list of functions that are
safe for use within signal handlers.

9175520c91 SIGABRT is *not* the same as calling abort(), so don't claim that it is.
(abort() flushes all open stdio streams for one thing.)

c6ff3a1bf7 Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide

fbc400a67a Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

     .\"    $Id$
     .\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

c86afb6bc0 signal() returns SIG_ERR, not just -1. The sys/signal.h header file
provides the cast from -1 to the signal() return type, so no further
casting by programmers should be required.

Pointed out by: bde (of course).
