176ef327fa Fixed $Id$. 
Removed POSIX.1/NetBSD markup (braces) for NAME_MAX, etc.  We don't
define this.  Most FreeBSD man pages hard-code the limits; in fact,
utimes.2 recently became the only file in libc/sys/*.2 that mentions
NAME_MAX.  There probably should be mandoc macros for this.

6a8edfca23 Use the .At macro when referencing versions of AT&T UNIX. 
Note: you need to install the current groff tmac macros for these
man pages to format correctly.  Specifically, rev 1.21 of
contrib_groff/tmac/doc-syms in -current, or rev 1.17.24 for 3.2-stable

6a8e2895aa asprintf() does use realloc() internally, but saying so in the manpage can be 
misinterpreted to mean that the pointer passed to asprintf() must be suitable
for passing to realloc() as-is (ie. either a NULL pointer or a valid pointer).

6b288cfa64 Backed out previous commit. devname.3 and devname.c were broken in Lite1 
(devname() returned "??" when the lookup failed, but callers expected it
to return NULL).  This was fixed in Lite2, but until recently the changes
were only merged into devname.3.  A day or two after devname.c was fixed,
devname.3 was made inconsistent again by backing out most of the Lite2
changes.

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.
