3626f83327 Update the default newfs block and fragment sizes from 8192/1024 to 
16384/2048.

Following recent discussions on the -arch mailing list, involving dillon
and mckusick, this change parallels the one made over a decade ago when
the default was bumped up from 4096/512.

This should provide significant performance improvements for most
folks, less significant performance losses for a few folks and
wasted space lost to large fragments for many folks.

For discussion, please see the following thread in the -arch archive:

Subject: Using a larger block size on large filesystems

schemes is raised.

99d2a6766d .St macro cleanup: 
- spell the abbreviation of 1003.1 as ``POSIX.1''
- fixed the description of -p1003.1-90; it was sold as ISO/IEC 9945-1:1990
- removed -p1003.1b; it only existed as 1003.1b-1993 (-p1003.1b-93), and
  is part of 1003.1 since 1003.1-1996.
- replaced -p1003.1g (project) with -p1003.1g-2000 (approved draft)
- changed abbreviation of -isoC from ``ISO C'' to ``ISO C89''
- removed -iso9899 alias for -isoC
- IEC was missing from some names
- added abbreviation for -susv2 (``SUSv2'')
