The wrapper script has moved to libexec/makewhatis.local since it is not
directlry related to the older makewhatis(1) utility that has been replaced
by the usr.bin/mandoc version.

Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.
Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.

is not correct. The code works by accident because gzFile is
currently defined as void *, and internally it would be casted from
or to its real type.
A newer version of zlib will instead define it as a pointer to a
specific type pointer (namely, struct gzFile_s *). This therefore
would cause stricter checks and compiler would catch this type
mismatch.
This change does not cause any changes to the resulting binary,
as validated with md5(1).

Std 1003.1-2008. Both Linux and Solaris conforms to the new definitions,
so we better follow too (older glibc used old BSDish alphasort prototype
and corresponding type of the comparision function for scandir). While
there, change the definitions of the functions to ANSI C and fix several
style issues nearby.
Remove requirement for "sys/types.h" include for functions from manpage.
POSIX also requires that alphasort(3) sorts as if strcoll(3) was used,
but leave the strcmp(3) call in the function for now.
Adapt in-tree callers of scandir(3) to new declaration. The fact that
select_sections() from catman(1) could modify supplied struct dirent is
a bug.

At least one port (net-mgmt/net-snmp) creates man-pages which are
in the format:
.SH NAME
The Net-SNMP agent \- The snmp agent responds to SNMP queries from management stations.
.PP
.SS "Modules"
At this moment, makewhatis determines the end of the .SH NAME section
as where it finds .SH again, but there is none here, is it "terminated"
by the .SS.

the new content size fits into the sbuf, instead of assuming

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.

makewhatis.local - start makewhatis(1) only for file systems
physically mounted on the system
Running makewhatis from /etc/weekly for rw nfs-mounted /usr may kill
your NFS server -- all clients start makewhatis at the same time!
So use this wrapper instead calling makewhatis directly.
