The errno message display added in r222292 did not take attempting to
cd to a non-directory or something that cannot be stat()ed into account.

This improves performance for globs where a slash or another component
follows a component with metacharacters by eliminating unnecessary attempts
to open directories that are not.
This is not necessary: errors are already caught in evalbackcmd() and
forcelocal handles changes to variables.
Note that this depends on r223024.

Free expanded case text before executing commands.
Remove impossible evalskip checks (expanding an argument cannot set
evalskip anymore since $(break) and the like are properly executed in a
subshell environment).
For these simple utilities, it doesn't harm to make all global variables
static. In fact, this allows the compiler to perform better forms of
optimisation and analysis.

main(). This resulted in a division by zero.
Noticed by: Michael Butler <imb@protected-networks.net>
- In the argc == 0 case, just populate the mount list as before, but
do not calculate widths, update totals or print anything.
- In the argv > 0 case, collect information about the requested file
systems and store it in the mount list, but do not calculate
widths, update totals or print anything.
- In either case, once all the information has been collected,
iterate once through the mount list to calculate widths and totals,
then once more to print everything.
This also fixes two bugs: firstly, column widths were not calculated
correctly if more than one file system was specified on the command
line; and secondly, file systems with MNT_IGNORE were included in the
totals even if -a was not specified.

- there's no reason the semantics of the -x flag are being explained in
the -a flag description
- be more precise regarding the relation between the -a flag and the
security.bsd.see_other_uids sysctl
- describe the format of the -t flag's argument
- 'con' no longer is a possible entry in the 'TT' column
- explain that the 'TT' column refers to pseudo-terminals via mere numbers
- add a hint in the 'tt' keyword description that a keyword 'tty' exists,
which will give the full terminal pathname

As of FreeBSD 6, devices can only be opened through devfs. These device
nodes don't have major and minor numbers anymore. The st_rdev field in
struct stat is simply based a copy of st_ino.
Simply display device numbers as hexadecimal, using "%#jx". This is
allowed by POSIX, since it explicitly states things like the following
(example taken from ls(1)):
"If the file is a character special or block special file, the
size of the file may be replaced with implementation-defined
information associated with the device in question."
This makes the output of these commands more compact. For example, ls(1)
now uses approximately four columns less. While there, simplify the
column length calculation from ls(1) by calling snprintf() with a NULL
buffer.
Don't be afraid; if needed one can still obtain individual major/minor
numbers using stat(1).
Because sh executes commands in subshell environments without forking in
more and more cases (particularly from 8.0 on), it makes sense to describe
subshell environments more precisely using ideas from POSIX, together with
some FreeBSD-specific items.
In particular, the hash and times builtins may not behave as if their state
is copied for a subshell environment while leaving the parent shell
environment unchanged.

again. This brings back the behaviour of expr in FreeBSD-4, which had been
reverted due to an assumed incompatbility with POSIX.1 for FreeBSD-5.
This issue has been discussed in the freebsd-standards list, and the
consensus was, that POSIX.1 is in fact not violated by this extension,
since it affects only cases of POSIX undefined behaviour (overflow of
signed long).
Other operating systems did upgrade their versions of expr to support
64bit range, after it had been initially brought to FreeBSD. They have
used it for a decade without problems, meanwhile.
The -e option is retained, but it will only select less strict checking
of numeric parameters (leading white-space, leading "+" are allowed and
skipped, an empty string is considered to represent 0 in numeric context.)
The call of check_utility_compat() as a means of establishing backwards
compatibility with FreeBSD-4 is considered obsolete, but preserved in
this commit. It is expected to be removed in a later revision of this
file.

* Shell patterns are also for ${var#pat} and the like.
* An '!' by itself will not trigger pathname generation so do not call it a
meta-character, even though it has a special meaning directly after an
'['.
* Character ranges are locale-dependent.
* A '^' will complement a character class like '!' but is non-standard.

POSIX requires a -h option to sh and set, to locate and remember utilities
invoked by functions as they are defined. Given that this
locate-and-remember process is optional elsewhere, it seems safe enough to
make this option do nothing.
POSIX does not specify a long name for this option. Follow ksh in calling it
"trackall".
Replacing ;; with the new control operator ;& will cause the next list to be
executed as well without checking its pattern, continuing until a list ends
with ;; or until the end of the case statement. This is like omitting
"break" in a C "switch" statement.
The sequence ;& was formerly invalid.
This feature is proposed for the next POSIX issue in Austin Group issue
#449.
