Bigram does not remove newline at end of filename. This

Bigram does not check for characters outside 32-127.
The bigram output is silly and need ~1/2 CPU time of
database rebuilding.

Use a lookup array instead a function. 3 x faster.

installs something. This is not 100% right, since it has a false hit
when install -C snaps hard links.
Also, run strip(1) from the $PATH, otherwise you need a special version
of install to install (say) elf binaries which have a different strip.
With JDP's elfkit, the layout of the path determines which binary format
you are generating.
from a script as if it was done in the interactive editor.
When reassembling the gecos string, trim any excess trailing commas, they
look ugly in the passwd file. :-)
Have a simple Makefile tweak to prevent mortal users from changing their
fullname. As ISP's we have seem some real bizzare stuff here..
When decoding the change/expire string, allow the month number as a
synonym for the name of the month.. (ie: 1 as well as Jan or January)
Note that using numbers means there's a chance that you can get bitten
if you're not used to the American DD-MM-YY order.
possibility of a security hole. It now does what rdist-6 does, and calls
/usr/bin/rsh if not running as root. There are NO protocol changes, this
is 100% compatable with the old rdist, except that it does not need setuid
root privs.
However, there are some minor differences to the base rdist-6 code in that
if it is being run by root, it will call rcmd(3) directly rather than
piping everything through rsh(1). This is a little more efficient as it
doesn't involve context switching on pipe reads/writes.
Also, the -P option was added from rdist-6.1.2, which allows an alternative
rsh program to be specified, such as ssh. Note that it requires the fixes
to the ssh port to disable the unconditional USE_PIPES option that was
recently added. The rcmd(3) optimisation is disabled if a non-rsh program
is speficied.
for bootstrap" tweak to the lex Makefile to stop it building the library
too early.
This untangles things a bit more, it stops new bootstraps failing because
libl/libfl uses 'ld -O' before ld is updated.
shared memory size, average unshared data size, and average unshared
stack size were too high by a factor of 128/100, because the program
used a hard-coded hz value of 100. The correct value is the frequency
of the statistics clock, currently 128. The program now uses sysctl
to get the stathz value from the kernel.

Beause the function Punt() in main.c takes care of leading 'make:' and
trailing newline, so, there is no need to pass explicitly.

The fundamental problem with the original code is that it accesses
p[-2] which is one before the beginning of the input buffer for
empty lines. rev.1.6 just moved the problem from failures when
p[-2] happens to be '\\' to failures when it happens to be '\0'.
rev.1.5 was confused about the trailing newline and other things.
I went back to rev.1.5 and fixed it. The result is the same as
Keith Bostic's final version in PR 1356 except it loses more
gracefully for excessively long input lines.

I'm not sure if this fixes the rdist security bug completely, but it
sure can't hurt!
This stuff should not be too destructive if the IPDIVERT is not compiled in..
be aware that this changes the size of the ip_fw struct
so ipfw needs to be recompiled to use it.. more changes coming to clean this up.
to 1K to avoid waiting too long between 2 progress reports in the case of a
slow transfer.
Move the signal()/setitimer() code just before the read loop because the
ftpio library set and reset the timer internally.
