Document the fact that the tracefile argument must lead to a regular file.

Also took the opportunity to remove the spurious "Errors" entry
relating to filenames with the high-order bit set and add $Id$.

(More of the same to follow if there are no objections).

6f0989b711 Update the docs after the rename of SA_DISABLE and SA_ONSTACK when used for 
ss_flags to SS_DISABLE and SS_ONSTACK.  SA_ONSTACK is still used in
struct sigaction.  Nowhere in our entire source tree could I find a
single place these were used.

574317c8f1 Add a dire warning about misusing the setlogin() system call. Be very 
explicit that it is global to the entire "session", and that setsid() or
daemon() are need to have been called at some point.

The most notable offender of setlogin() misuse is XFree86's xdm.

e1f4e80c88 Fixed a bunch of man page cross references that were 
in the main text of various man pages.

Thanks to Warner Losh for adding an option to manck to allow
it to scan the entire man page looking for bogus xrefs, instead
of just checking the SEE ALSO section.

ncurses, rpc, and some of the gnu stuff are still a big mess, however.
