ab0d10f68e Several cleanups related to pipe(2).
- Use `fildes[2]' instead of `*fildes' to make more clear that pipe(2)
  fills an array with two descriptors.

- Remove EFAULT from the manual page. Because of the current calling
  convention, pipe(2) raises a segmentation fault when an invalid
  address is passed.

- Introduce kern_pipe() to make it easier for binary emulations to
  implement pipe(2).

- Make Linux binary emulation use kern_pipe(), which means we don't have
  to recover td_retval after calling the FreeBSD system call.

61fb9bd80c - In pipe() return the error returned by pipe_create(), rather then
hardcoded ENFILES, which is incorrect. pipe_create() can fail due
  to ENOMEM.
- Update manual page, describing ENOMEM return code.

2faeeff4c9 mdoc(7) police: Tidy up the syscall language.
Stop calling system calls "function calls".

Use "The .Fn system call" a-la "The .Nm utility".

When referring to a non-BSD implementation in
the HISTORY section, call syscall a function,
to be safe.

c6ff3a1bf7 Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.

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

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.

7bdf80e571 Correctly use .Fn instead of .Nm to reference function names
in a bunch of man pages.

Use the correct .Bx  (BSD UNIX) or .At (AT&T UNIX) macros
instead of explicitly specifying the version in the text
in a bunch of man pages.
