`cat -l` is needed during the installworld phase and other system's cat

Linux/macOS (such as the the direct access to &fp->_mbstate), we
disable the entire multibyte support when building as a boostrap tool.

If getcwd() failed earlier on but later succeeded in the pwd builtin,
there was no INTOFF protection between calling savestr() and storing its
result.
It is quite rare for getcwd() to fail, and rarer for it to succeed later in
the same directory.
Found via code inspection for changing ckmalloc() and similar to assert
INTOFF protection instead of applying it directly (which protects against
corrupting malloc's internal state but allows memory leaks or double frees).

If executing a file fails with an [ENOEXEC] error, the shell executes the
file as a shell script, except that this execution may instead result in an
error message if the file is binary.
Per a recent Austin Group interpretation, we will need to change this to
allow a concatenation of a shell script and a binary payload. See
Austin Group bugs #1226 and #1250.

Normally, count=n means read(2) will be called n times on the input to dd. If
the read() returns short, as may happen when reading from a pipe, fewer bytes
will be copied from the input. With conv=sync the buffer is padded with zeros
to fill the rest of the block.
iflag=fullblock causes dd to continue reading until the block is full, so that
count=n means n full blocks are copied. This flag is compatible with illumos
and GNU dd and is used in the ZFS test suite.

The pipefail option allows checking the exit status of all commands in a
pipeline more easily, at a limited cost of complexity in sh itself. It works
similarly to the option in bash, ksh93 and mksh.
Like ksh93 and unlike bash and mksh, the state of the option is saved when a
pipeline is started. Therefore, even in the case of commands like
A | B &
a later change of the option does not change the exit status, the same way
(A | B) &
works.
Since SIGPIPE is not handled specially, more work in the script is required
for a proper exit status for pipelines containing commands such as head that
may terminate successfully without reading all input. This can be something
like
(
cmd1
r=$?
if [ "$r" -gt 128 ] && [ "$(kill -l "$r")" = PIPE ]; then
exit 0
else
exit "$r"

-P was introduced in 4.4BSD-Lite2 around 1994. It overwrote file contents
with a pass of 0xff, 0x00, then 0xff, in a low effort attempt to "really
delete" files.
It has no user-visible effect; at the end of the day, the file is unlinked via
the filesystem. Furthermore, the utility of overwriting files with patterned
data is extremely limited due to caveats at every layer of the stack[0] and
therefore mostly futile. At the least, three passes is likely wasteful on
modern hardware[1]. It could also be seen as a violation of the "Unix
Philosophy" to do one thing per tiny, composable program.
Since 1994, FreeBSD has left it alone; OpenBSD replaced it with a single
pass of arc4random(3) output in 2012[2]; and NetBSD implemented partial, but
explicitly incomplete support for U.S. DoD 5220.22-M, "National Industrial
Security Program Operating Manual" in 2004[3].
NetBSD's enhanced comment above rm_overwrite makes a strong case for removing
the flag entirely:

> non-snapshotted FFS filesystems using fsdb(8). Really. No more.
>

As a first step towards evental removal, make it a placebo. It's not like
it was serving any security function. It is not defined in or mentioned by
POSIX.
If you are security conscious and need to erase your files, use a
woodchipper. At a minimum, the entire disk needs to be overwritten, not
just one file.
