34faf79d4f Refine the history of uname. It appeared in 4.4BSD. It was not in v7 unix. It
was one of the additions in PWB, and appeared in System III and later commercial
versions of Unix. The different args to uname weren't aded until System III. Add
a quick note to note the late entry into the BSD fork of Unix since PWB
otherwise implies a pre-fork date.

d732b7fc69 Expose the kernel's build-ID through uname -b
After r348611 the kernel's build-ID is available via sysctl.  Add a -b flag
to uname to report it.

85ca489823 - Add a simple example to uname(1) manual page to show how the hardware
platform (returned by -m) can be different from the machine's processor
  architecture (-p)
- Document that make(1) sets universal MACHINE and MACHINE_ARCH variables
  based on these values

7e6cabd06e Renumber copyright clause 4
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

5532d94759 Add -K (__FreeBSD_version of kernel) and -U (__FreeBSD_version of userland).
Things like Makefile.inc1 resort to parsing /usr/include/osreldate.h with
awk because this isn't easily available by other means.  The separation
of user and kernel versions is important for jail/chroot environments.

bf00a8f9ce Allow -o as a synonym for -s, for compatibility with other systems.
Using -s is preferred, but some existing scripts and makefiles expect
to get the system name from uname -o.

f315e03eaf Make kernel identification (`ident' in the config(8) driver) available to
userland, and the kernel.  In the kernel by way of the 'ident[]' variable
akin to all the other stuff generated by newvers.sh.  In userland it is
available to sysctl consumers via KERN_IDENT or 'kern.ident'.  It is exported
by uname(1) by the -i flag.

241a475e6f Note that this appeared at least as early as PWB UNIX.
Use the literal string 'PWB UNIX', as we still have no .At macro for it.

dcf74a7fe1 Note early appearence of some commands. These actually appeared in PWB, but
it seems we don't have a macro for that yet, so list them in the first UNIX
release since then that we have a .At for: v7.

6578739ddb Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

     .\"    $Id$
     .\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.
