for storing the "diff -n" output. Some files (eg ports/INDEX,v) are too
big nowadays to fit on the stack.

- Use MAP_FAILED instead of the constant -1 to indicate
failure (required by POSIX).
- Removed flag arguments of '0' (required by POSIX).
- Fixed code which expected an error return of 0.
- Fixed code which thought any address with the high bit set
was an error.
- Check for failure where no checks were present.

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.
- add ctm_conf.gnats from freefall
- add support for doing both the immediate mailout and the queued mailout.
- use "sendmail -odq -t" rather than "sendamil -t" to make it queue to
the mailqueue rather than immediately begin transmission. This allows
us to take advantage of our ordered dequeueing system without blowing
WC's T1 to hell with a 50 part mailout in parallel.
- bump the max ctm size from 3MB to 10MB.... This is mainly for the fast
list.
1) malloc.h doesn't exits in 2.0.
2) Makefile.inc wasn't picked up so one of the build steps (install?)
failed.
3) LIBMD wasn't depended on.
4) "ctm foo" dumped core because "foo" doesn't have a '.' in it.

I updated the mkCTM stuff while I was at it anyway. /phk

subscriptions yet. Wait for the announcement.
CTM is my humble attempt to get -current out to people beyond TCP/IP
connections. This is for people with dial-up connections and such.
CTM can make a delta from one version to another of a source-tree, in
a efficient and verified way. Even if there are binary files in the
tree. It will even try to make the delta as small as possible.
It is OK with me if you yell "Bloating!" but I'll just forward your email
to some of the happy customers from CTM version 1, and let them tell you
what they think.
I will not put ctm into "make world" yet. For now it is just the logical
way to get the sources out to people who helps me test this.
