changed from a simple list to a circular one. We compensate by only
looping until we see the first address again. Before, things would
terminate because it was limited to 200 iterations. This lead to
bogus statistics and repeating stats for memory types.
This should be merged into 3.2, as the same bug is there.

"passwordtime" is what passwd(1) has actually been using. I suspect

That doesn't work well for tapes over 4G.
I use tcopy a lot to write images of a tape to tape as tape to tape

tcopy can not rewind a file when doing copy/verify.

Arguments with whitespaces are easy to fix, but in combination with
shell metachars that should not be evaluated it is very hard, probably
impossible to fix without going to a line-oriented solution.
Next time I will believe Henry Spencer when he says "this looks easy
to fix but isn't".

example.
2) Fix the example in the manpage. The set(1) command is required to
return 0 (POSIX 1003.2, section 3.14.11), so you can't test for
getopt's exit status like the example did:
#! /bin/sh
set -- `getopt abo: $*`
if test $? != 0 # wrong, tests for set's exit status, which is
# always zero, no for getopt(1)'s.
Fixes PR bin/5845, which thought it was getopt's fault, but in fact
the manpage was wrong.
I also updated the example to be more useful and updated the BUGS
section.

For whatever reason, the kernel seems to have generated SIGIOs
previously without an initial fcntl(...,F_SETOWN), but does no longer.
This caused window(1) to wait indefinitely for input.
Also, undo rev 1.3 of wwspawn.c, it was not well-thought, and
apparently not even tested at all. The blindly (even in a nonsensical
place like the comment on top of the function) applied replacement of
vfork() by fork() totally ignored that window(1) *does* abuse the
feature of vfork() where a modification of the parent's address space
is possible (in this case, to notify the parent of an erred exec*).
Also, with vfork(), it is guaranteed that the parent is only woken up
after the exec*() happened, where the replacement by fork() made the
parent to almost always become runnable again before the child, in
which case the parent simply told `subprocess died'. Unfortunately,
working around _this_ seems to be a lot more of redesign work compared
to little gained value, so i think relying on the specifics of vfork()
is the simpler way.

Instead, treat the inability to retrieve a record from the server as a
match failure and let things take its course.
Part of the problem here is that NIS _is_ turned on, however the master
server is actually not an NIS server: it's an NIS+ server. And the client
is bound to an NIS+ replica server that's running in YP compat mode.
The code which tries to figure out of the user is local or NIS gets
confused by this.

Unfortunately, it doesn't help for the X11 library paths -- cc

I'm not sure why we have `mvstat -z'. `sysctl vm.zone' gives more

peripheral drivers can determine where in the devstat(9) list they are
inserted.
This requires recompilation of libdevstat, systat, vmstat, rpc.rstatd, and
any ports that depend on the devstat code, since the size of the devstat
structure has changed. The devstat version number has been incremented as
well to reflect the change.
This sorts devices in the devstat list in "more interesting" to "less
interesting" order. So, for instance, da devices are now more important
than floppy drives, and so will appear before floppy drives in the default
output from systat, iostat, vmstat, etc.
The order of devices is, for now, kept in a central table in devicestat.h.
If individual drivers were able to make a meaningful decision on what
priority they should be at attach time, we could consider splitting the
priority information out into the various drivers. For now, though, they
have no way of knowing that, so it's easier to put them in an easy to find
table.
Also, move the checkversion() call in vmstat(8) to a more logical place.
Thanks to Bruce and David O'Brien for suggestions, for reviewing this, and
for putting up with the long time it has taken me to commit it. Bruce did
object somewhat to the central priority table (he would rather the
priorities be distributed in each driver), so his objection is duly noted
here.
