a51d79c1d3 Catch up with stat.h a bit: 
o Sticky bit is actually defined as S_ISTXT not S_ISVTX.
o Sticky bit is wrapped in if __BSD_VISIBLE not _POSIX_SOURCE.

f56be64fb2 ``NULL is a specific instance of a null pointer constant; the generic is 
a "null pointer".''

Making good use of the excellent explanations sent to me by Ruslan
Ermilov, Garrett Wollman and Bruce Evans, correct the descriptions of
null pointers.  They are just "null pointers", not nil, not NULL or
".Dv NULL".

017aaf79e1 Since sendfile(2) works on regular files only, 
which have no negative offsets, "negative" and
"invalid" are equivalent WRT the offset argument.

9a0cabd9e4 Explain it is a negative offset that EINVAL may indicate. 
Now readers won't get an impression that pointing to beyond
the current end of file will result in EINVAL.

open(2) can.

85e8765b7e Clarify getfsstat(2) usage. 
The getfsstat(2) function expects a buffer and a count, and returns a count.

The confusing part is that the count it takes is a byte count, while the
return value is a count of the number of structures it has filled out.

Spell this out.
