public prototypes of setbuf(3) and setvbuf(3) using the
'__restrict' macro from <sys/cdefs.h> to be compliant with
IEEE Std 1003.1-2001.
- Replace the K&R with ANSI-C function definitions.
- Bring the manual page up-to-date.
(I skipped those in contrib/, gnu/ and crypto/)
While I was at it, fixed a lot more found by ispell that I
could identify with certainty to be errors. All of these
were in comments or text, not in actual code.

o Provide an example for using snprintf over sprintf. This may be
supplemented with an asprintf() example soon.

FreeBSD Security Architecture after it has been committed.

- Remove redundant "? :" construct.
style(9):
- Place a space after return statements.
- Compare pointers to NULL.
- Do not use ! to compare a character to nul.
- New length modifiers: hh, j, ll, t, z.
Still to do:
- %C, %S, %lc, %ls (wide character support)
- %a/%A (exact hex representation of floating-point numbers)
Removed old compatability equivalents:
- %D for %ld, %O for %lo, %X for %lx, %E and %F for %le & %lf (these
were buggy anyway, since they should have represented %Le & %Lf).
- %[unknown uppercase char] for %ld, %[unknown lowercase char] for %d
In original version grouping was hardcoded. It assumed that thousands
separator should be inserted to separate each 3 numbers. I.e. grouping
string "\003" was assumed for all cases. In correct case (per POSIX)
vfprintf should respect locale defined non-monetary (LC_NUMERIC
category) grouping sequence.
Also simplify thousands_sep handling.
- New length modifiers: hh, j, t, z.
- New flag: '. Note that %'f is not yet implemented.
- Use "inf"/"nan" for efg formats, "INF"/"NAN" for EFG formats.
- Implemented %q in terms of %ll; if "quad_t" is not "long long"
%q will break.
Still to do:
- %C, %S, %lc, %ls (wide character support)
- %'f (thousands in integer portion of %f)
- %a/%A (exact hex representation of floating-point numbers)

The definition of character class digit requires that only ten characters
-the ones defining digits- can be specified; alternate digits (for
example, Hindi or Kanji) cannot be specified here. However, the encoding
may vary if an implementation supports more than one encoding.
The definition of character class xdigit requires that the characters
included in character class digit are included here also and allows for
different symbols for the hexadecimal digits 10 through 15.
