so that when ar has a problem (like trying to update a read-only
archive), you get a message like:
ar: xyzzy.a: Permission denined
instead of:
ar: xyzzy.a
Which doesn't really give the user any indication that the operation
really did fail.
This closes PR# 170.
route.c: look up the netname as-is first before the shifted name. this
makes a big speed difference, as the lookups are generally local
DNS. The shifted names can be very wrong (there is still guessing
and fudging involved) and usually go remote, taking a long time
to fail. If you have the RFC reccomended netnames in your reverse
lookups, this is even faster still.
main.c: dont do a sethostent(1) - this is causing the resolver to use a
VC (tcp) connection to the resolver, which has more overheads and
is slower than the default UDP case. This once made sense when
everything was based on text host tables.
scripts check for. (when looking explicitly for flex..)
Also, do some man links for the commands under their alternate names.
Install the c++ FlexLexer.h file as per the "XXX TODO" comment.
replaced our quota with the NetBSD one, then added all changes we made
to our - this is done to support the displaying of quota's over nfs
using the rpc.rquotad
looking at a high resolution clock for each of the following events:
function call, function return, interrupt entry, interrupt exit,
and interesting branches. The differences between the times of
these events are added at appropriate places in a ordinary histogram
(as if very fast statistical profiling sampled the pc at those
places) so that ordinary gprof can be used to analyze the times.
gmon.h:
Histogram counters need to be 4 bytes for microsecond resolutions.
They will need to be larger for the 586 clock.
The comments were vax-centric and wrong even on vaxes. Does anyone
disagree?
gprof4.c:
The standard gprof should support counters of all integral sizes
and the size of the counter should be in the gmon header. This
hack will do until then. (Use gprof4 -u to examine the results
of non-statistical profiling.)
config/*:
Non-statistical profiling is configured with `config -pp'.
`config -p' still gives ordinary profiling.
kgmon/*:
Non-statistical profiling is enabled with `kgmon -B'. `kgmon -b'
still enables ordinary profiling (and distables non-statistical
profiling) if non-statistical profiling is configured.

Changing a local passwd will now keep the encryption type that
was originally used to encrypt the password, so folks adding DES
to their systems will not be irritated/confused by having MD5'ed
passwords in their master.passwd. Coming later is an option to
allow the user to choose the encryption type.
2) Fix a bunch of compiler warnings announced by turning on -Wall.
I did not get them all, that will come a bit later.
