to the console in a final attempt to log something. Make this final
attempt non-blocking so that a blocking console doesn't end up
blocking process which attempt to syslog something.
In particular, this means you should be able to su and fix the
problem if the console becomes blocking.

return NULL). I mistakenly thought we were still using getpass.c

applications linked with Linux-PAM will still work.
Remove pam_get_pass(); OpenPAM has pam_get_authtok().
Remove pam_prompt(); OpenPAM has pam_{,v}{error,info,prompt}().
Remove pam_set_item(3) man page as OpenPAM has its own.

sbrk() and brk() are not thread safe. Replace use of sbrk() with
a call to malloc to avoid race when one thread calls atexit
while another thread calls malloc.

device drivers for bus system with other endinesses than the CPU (using
interfaces compatible to NetBSD):
- bwap16() and bswap32(). These have optimized implementations on some
architectures; for those that don't, there exist generic implementations.
- macros to convert from a certain byte order to host byte order and vice
versa, using a naming scheme like le16toh(), htole16().
These are implemented using the bswap functions.
- stream bus space access functions, which do not perform a byte order
conversion (while the normal access functions would if the bus endianess
differs from the CPU endianess).
htons(), htonl(), ntohs() and ntohl() are implemented using the new
functions above for kernel usage. None of the above interfaces is currently
exported to user land.
Make use of the new functions in a few places where local implementations
of the same functionality existed.

spares (the size of the field was changed from u_short to u_int to
reflect what it really ends up being). Accordingly, change users of
xucred to set and check this field as appropriate. In the kernel,
this is being done inside the new cru2x() routine which takes a
`struct ucred' and fills out a `struct xucred' according to the
former. This also has the pleasant sideaffect of removing some
duplicate code.
