syscalls, unless WITHOUT_SYSCALL_COMPAT is defined. The default case
will have the .c wrappers still. If you define WITHOUT_SYSCALL_COMPAT,
the .c wrappers will go away and libc will make direct syscalls.
After 7-stable starts, the direct syscall method will be default.

particular:
SYSCALL() makes a syscall, with errno handling, and continues execution
directly after the macro in the non-error case.
RSYSCALL() is just like SYSCALL(), but returns after success.
Both SYSCALL(name) and RSYSCALL(name) export "__sys_name" as a strong
symbol, with "_name" and "name" as weak aliases.
PSEUDO() is just like RSYSCALL(), but skipping the "name" weak alias. It
still does "__sys_name" and "_name".
Change i386 to add errno handling to PSEUDO. The same for amd64 and
sparc64, with appear to have copied the behavior.
ia64 was correct (as was alpha). Just remove some apparently unused
variants of the macros. (untested!)
I believe powerpc is correct.
Fix arm to not export "name" from the PSEUDO case. Remove apparently
extra unused variants. (untested!)
The errno problem manifested on i386/amd64/sparc64 by having "PSEUDO"
classified syscalls return without setting errno. eg: "addr = mmap()"
could return with "addr" = 22 instead of setting errno to 22 and
returning -1.

net: endhostdnsent is named _endhostdnsent and is
private to netdb family of functions.
posix1e: acl_size.c has been never compiled in,
so there's no "acl_size".
rpc: "getnetid" is a static function.
stdtime: "gtime" is #ifdef'ed out in the source.
some symbols are specific only to some architectures,
e.g., ___tls_get_addr is only defined on i386.
__htonl, __htons, __ntohl and __ntohs are no longer
functions, they are now (internal) defines in
<machine/endian.h>.

optimization manual because it disables branch prediction for the return

to mistakes from day 1, it has always had semantics inconsistent with
SVR4 and its successors. In particular, given argument M:
- On Solaris and FreeBSD/{alpha,sparc64}, it clobbers the old flags
and *sets* the new flag word to M. (NetBSD, too?)
- On FreeBSD/{amd64,i386}, it *clears* the flags that are specified in M
and leaves the remaining flags unchanged (modulo a small bug on amd64.)
- On FreeBSD/ia64, it is not implemented.
There is no way to fix fpsetsticky() to DTRT for both old FreeBSD apps
and apps ported from other operating systems, so the best approach
seems to be to kill the function and fix any apps that break. I
couldn't find any ports that use it, and any such ports would already
be broken on FreeBSD/ia64 and Linux anyway.
By the way, the routine has always been undocumented in FreeBSD,
except for an MLINK to a manpage that doesn't describe it. This
manpage has stated since 5.3-RELEASE that the functions it describes
are deprecated, so that must mean that functions that it is *supposed*
to describe but doesn't are even *more* deprecated. ;-)
Note that fpresetsticky() has been retained on FreeBSD/i386. As far
as I can tell, no other operating systems or ports of FreeBSD
implement it, so there's nothing for it to be inconsistent with.

bit in a long double. For architectures that don't have such a bit,
LDBL_NBIT is 0. This makes it possible to say `mantissa & ~LDBL_NBIT'
in places that previously used an #ifdef to select the right expression.
The optimizer should dispense with the extra arithmetic when LDBL_NBIT
is 0.
isnormal() the hard way, rather than relying on fpclassify(). This is
a lose in the sense that we need a total of 12 functions, but it is
necessary for binary compatibility because we have never bumped libm's
major version number. In particular, isinf(), isnan(), and isnanf()
were BSD libc functions before they were C99 macros, so we can't
reimplement them in terms of fpclassify() without adding a dependency
on libc.so.5. I have tried to arrange things so that programs that
could be compiled in FreeBSD 4.X will generate the same external
references when compiled in 5.X. At the same time, the new macros
should remain C99-compliant.
The isinf() and isnan() functions remain in libc for historical
reasons; however, I have moved the functions that implement the macros
isfinite() and isnormal() to libm where they belong. Moreover,
half a dozen MD versions of isinf() and isnan() have been replaced
with MI versions that work equally well.

solved by a simple 'make world'. The signalcontext function was going
to the trouble of generating an even 16 byte alignment, but in fact it
needed to be odd aligned to simulate the 8-byte return address having
been pushed by the caller. This fixes yet another group of crashes in
applications using libpthread. And yet again, it was my fault all along.
While here, rename the duplicate internal ctx_wrapper() functions to
makectx_wrapper() and sigctx_wrapper() so that traces aren't ambiguous.
at it, use the ANSI C generic pointer type for the second argument,
thus matching the documentation.
Remove the now extraneous (and now conflicting) function declarations
in various libc sources. Remove now unnecessary casts.

ABI-required stack alignment. C code expects that the push of the
return address disturbed the 16 byte alignment and it will take corrective
measures to fix it before making another call. Of course, if its wrong
to start with, then all hell breaks loose. Essentially we "fix" this
by making the stack alignment odd to start with.
This was one of the things that broke on libkse with apps that use
floating point/varargs/etc.

This fixes ghostscript for 'make release' on amd64. Ghostscript for some
reason thinks it is a good idea to use -fno-builtin, which means it is
vulnerable to bugs in libc that are normally hidden by the builtin gcc
functions. Oops.
value for getcontext() in a preserved register rather than on the stack.
The second time around, the stack value would likely have changed so we
can't depend on it for the return value.
