- Declare mtabhead as an extern in mounttab.h and define it only in
mounttab.c.
- Remove shared global `verbose' and instead pass it as a parameter.
- Remove the `mtabp' argument to read_mtab(). It served no purpose
whatsoever, although read_mtab() did use it as a temporary local
variable.
- Don't check for impossible conditions when parsing mounttab, and
do detect zero-length fields.
- Correctly test for strtoul() failures - just testing ERANGE is wrong.
- Include a field name in syslog errors, and avoid passing NULL to
a syslog %s field.
- Don't test if arrays are NULL.
- If there are duplicates when writing out mounttab, keep the last
entry instead of the first, as it will have a later timestamp.
- Fix a few formatting issues.
Update rpc.umntall and umount to match the mounttab interface changes.

immediately if a host specified by the -h flag cannot be parsed
instead of attempting to unmount all NFS filesystems, which was
bad.
Add a missing return statement at the end of checkname(); this
could result in a non-zero exit status in some cases even if the
unmount succeeded.
Group two separate NFS-related operations into one block to make
it more obvious that a variable (hostp) is not dereferenced when
uninitialised. Initialise it to NULL anyway to avoid a warning.
Pass in the read_mtab()'s bogus argument as NULL instead of messing
with a local variable to achieve the same effect. A later commit
will clean up this mounttab interface.
forever by default. This matches what mount_nfs did before revision
1.40, and it is the generally expected behaviour for NFS mounts.
Document the current defaults near the start of the man page and
mention the options that can be used to change them.

to give up after one attempt unless a background mount is requested.
Background mounts would retry 10000 times (at least 7 days) before
giving up.
For some situations such as diskless terminals, an NFS filesystem
may be critical to the boot process, so neither the "try once" nor
background mounts are appropiate. To cater for this situation,
unbreak the -R (retry count) parameter so that it also works in
the non-background case. Interpret a zero retry count as "retry
forever".
The defaults are now "try once" for non-background mounts and "retry
forever" for background mounts; both can be overridden via -R.
Add a description of this behaviour to the manpage.
device search code i introduce nearly six years ago in rev 1.8. Bruce
suggested to rather use the device name of the root filesystem instead
which is certainly the most sensible default. Since there are many
possible cases for a root filesystem name (device with and without
slices, consider /dev/vinum/root even though it currently could not
work as such), there's some heuristic using a RE in order to find out
the canonical device name from the mounted name. This probably won't
quite fit for a NFS root (can't test that right now), but then,
there's hard to find a good default for those machines anyway. ;-)
This unbreaks the functionality of rev 1.2 i once broke in 1.8. :)
to use 0xffffffff (INADDR_NONE) as a netmask value. The fix
is to use inet_addr(3) which doesn't suffer from this problem.
PR: bin/28873
Also, while here, fixed the bug when netmask value was ignored
(RTF_HOST flag was set) if the "destination gateway netmask"
syntax is used, e.g. ``route add 1.2.3.4 127.1 255.255.255.255''.
The original code was certainly broken; it knows that whereto is
to be used for a sockaddr_in, so it should be declared as such.
To support multiple protocols, there is also a sockaddr_storage
struct that can be used; I don't think struct sockaddr is supposed
to be used anywhere other than for casts and pointers.

This one is strange and goes against my rusty compiler knowledge.
The global declaration
struct sockaddr whereto;
produces for both i386 && alpha:
.comm whereto,16,1
which means common storage, byte aligned. Ahem. I though structs
were supposed to be ALDOUBLE always? I mean, w/o pragma packed?
Later on, this address is coerced to:
to = (struct sockaddr_in *)&whereto;
Up until now, we've been fine on alpha because the address
just ended up aligned to a 4 byte boundary. Lately, though,
it end up as:
0000000120027b0f B whereto
And, tra la, you get unaligned access faults. The solution I picked, in
lieu of understanding what the compiler was doing, is to put whereto
as a union of a sockaddr and sockaddr_in. That's more formally correct
if somewhat awkward looking.
