instead of removing the file and issue a warning about
the removal, do not do any operation at all in case -P
is specified when the dinode has hard links.
With -f and -P specified together, we assume that the
user wants rm to overwrite the contents of the file
and remove it (destroy the contents of file but leave
its hard links as is).
The reason of doing it this way is that, in case where
a hard link is created by a malicious user (currently
this is permitted even if the user has no access to the
file). Losing the link can potentially mean that the
actual owner would lose control completely to the user
who wants to obtain access in a future day.

loss, which is usually undesired.

current implementation of df(1) is does not properly format the output under
certain conditions. Right now -kP and -Pk are not the same thing. Further,
when we set the BLOCKSIZE environment variable, we use "1k" instead of "1024",
making the header display incorrectly.
To quote the specification:
"When both the -k and -P options are specified, the following header line
shall be written (in the POSIX locale):
"Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on\n"
- If -P has been specified, check to make sure that -k has not already been
specified, if so, simply break instead of clobbering the previous blocksize
- Use 1024 instead of 1k to make the header POSIX compliant

We still need to expand variables in PS1, PS2 and PS4.

- A redirection error is only fatal (meaning the execution of a shell script is
terminated) for special built-ins. Previously it was fatal for all shell
builtins, causing problems like the one reported in PR 88845.
- Variable assignments remain in effect for special built-ins.
- Option or operand errors are only fatal for special built-ins.
This change also makes errors from 'fc' non-fatal (I could not find any reasons
for this behaviour).
Somewhat independently from the above down-grade the error handling in the
shift built-in if the operand is bigger than $# from an error() call (which is
now fatal) to a return 1. I'm not sure if this should be considered a POSIX
"operand error", however this change is needed for now as we trigger that error
while building libncurses. Comparing with other shells, zsh does the same as
our sh before this change (write a diagnostic, return 1), bash behaves as our
sh after this commit (no diagnostic, return 1) and ksh93 and NetBSD's sh treat
it as a fatal error.
