o Revise description in light of commits over last month including:
- ACL editing library is now implemented
- ACLs are now implemented
Obtained from: TrustedBSD Project
acl_add_perm, acl_clear_perms, acl_copy_entry, acl_create_entry,
acl_delete_perm, acl_get_permset, acl_get_qualifier, acl_get_tag_type,
acl_set_permset, acl_set_qualifier, acl_set_tag_type
This brings us within 4 functions of a full ACL editing library.

- lowercase Nd argument
- mark function arguments with Fa
- mark defined values with Dv
- simply copying POSIX text for RETURN VALUES and ERRORS sections is not
always a good idea. POSIX uses the word "shall" indicating the behavior
the correct implementation should follow.
o acl_calc_mask(): calculates the ACL mask entry associated with
the given ACL.
o acl_delete_entry(): remove a specified ACL entry from the given
ACL.

utility functions which convert between string namespace names and
numeric constants used by the interface. Right now, two namespaces
are supported, EXTATTR_NAMESPACE_SYSTEM ("system") and
EXTATTR_NAMESPACE_USER ("user"). These functions are used by
various userland EA utilities, rather than hard coding the routines
all over the place.

o Rename internal library functions so that they are prefixed with
_posix1e or _POSIX1E, removing them from the application namespace (and
potential conflict with other ACL functions elsewhere in the system).

- errno is already set to ENOMEM (as appropriate) when asprintf(),
strdup(), or acl_init() fails
o acl_to_text.c:
- the return value of the initial strdup() is not checked
- errno is already set to ENOMEM (as appropriate) when asprintf
and acl_init() fails
- let the the default: case use 'goto error_label' for consistency

u_int64_t flag field, bounding the number of capabilities at 64,
but substantially cleaning up capability logic (there are currently
43 defined capabilities).
o Heads up to anyone actually using capabilities: the constant
assignments for various capabilities have been redone, so any
persistent binary capability stores (i.e., '$posix1e.cap' EA
backing files) must be recreated. If you have one of these,
you'll know about it, so if you have no idea what this means,
don't worry.
o Update libposix1e to reflect this new definition, fixing the
exposed functions that directly manipulate the flags fields.
Obtained from: TrustedBSD Project
- Include <stdlib.h> and <string.h> as needed for prototypes
- Remove unneeded "error" variables
o Make cap_init() use cap_clear() instead of bzero()
Obtained from: TrustedBSD Project
o Implementations will remain in the seperately distributed capability
patch until the cap_t type changes are synchronized.

standardized interface to the capability support in TrustedBSD.
o Not currently enabled in Makefile, as this code depends on syscalls
and include files that will be committed at a later date.
Obtained from: TrustedBSD Project
o Add shared library version 2 to libposix1e given API changes, et al
o Commented out cap_*.c as that is not currently being compiled into
the library (pending syscalls being committed)

o Switch reference to www.trustedbsd.org instead of POSIX.1e implementation

o Add cross references to capabilities man pages
o Remove extended attribute not implemented "BUGS" entry
