a couple typos, and consistent double-spacing after sentences.
This is actually a spinoff from the "ports-current discontinued"
blow-up some time ago.

plain 0 should be used. This happens to work because we #define
NULL to 0, but is stylistically wrong and can cause problems
for people trying to port bits of code to other environments.

the option in pkg_create. Now preserved files start with a . and are
named .<filename>.<pkgname>.backup so that their purpose is more clear.
Note that just using the preserve option without proper pkg_deps
is also foolish since packages being deleted in the incorrect order with
preserve on can generate some odd results.
before replacing them (using pkgname to make this hopefully unique).
Delete also moves them back, if they exist, resulting in a package
which can be "backed out" with reasonable safety.
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.
later at pkg_delete time to verify that you're deleting what you added.
This, of course, does NOT cover the case where a file you still need
hasn't changed! That's a tougher problem to solve, and this provides
only the minimal amount of safety belt. MD5 checksums are stored in comment
fields, so packages produced with these tools are backwards compatible with
the older ones.
man pages up to mdoc guidelines and fix some minor formatting glitches.
Also fixed a number of man pages to not abuse the .Xr macro to
display functions and path names and a lot of other junk.
Also allow URL specification for a package. This works for things the
package may depend on, too.
Allow PKG_PATH to be used anywhere a package is being searched for.
1. Make paths work correctly.
2. Make pkg_add generally more robust in the face of failure.
3. Make the depend messages come out on stderr or stdout, but not both
interspersed! :-)
2. Fix a long-standing bug in pkg_add where the failure of one package in
a multipackage installation (pkg_add *.tgz) would blow you right out of
the water. Ick.

2. Add a "feature" to pkg_create (OK, OK, it's a miserable hack!) to get
it to dump its internal packing list out so that the `fake-pkg' rule in
bsd.port.mk can generate a more meaningful packing list.
