setenv(3) by tracking the size of the memory allocated instead of using
strlen() on the current value.
Convert all calls to POSIX from historic BSD API:
- unsetenv returns an int.
- putenv takes a char * instead of const char *.
- putenv no longer makes a copy of the input string.
- errno is set appropriately for POSIX. Exceptions involve bad environ
variable and internal initialization code. These both set errno to
EFAULT.
Several patches to base utilities to handle the POSIX changes from
Andrey Chernov's previous commit. A few I re-wrote to use setenv()
instead of putenv().
New regression module for tools/regression/environ to test these
functions. It also can be used to test the performance.
Bump __FreeBSD_version to 700050 due to API change.

handling is that fd = open(foo) is -1. This bug is harmless since
close(-1) just returns an error (which the code ignores).

Not because I admit they are technically wrong and not because of bug
reports (I receive nothing). But because I surprisingly meets so
strong opposition and resistance so lost any desire to continue that.
Anyone who interested in POSIX can dig out what changes and how
through cvs diffs.
1) Under POSIX unsetenv("foo=bar") is explicit error and not equal
to unsetenv("foo")
2) Prepare for upcomig POSIXed putenv() rewrite: make putenv() calls
portable and conforming to standard.
Before this fix the -h flag was ignored (i.e. setfacl
always set the ACL on the file pointed to by the symbolic
link even when the -h flag requested that the ACL be set
on the symbolic link itself).
either -v or -V) if a file with a slash in the name doesn't exist (if there is
no slash we already did that).
Additionally, suppress the error message for command -v for files with a slash.

This allows script compatibility with Linux, whose
"hostname" is the same as BSD "hostname -s".
With this change, "hostname -f" is the same on
both systems.

issue a syntax error immediately but save the information that it is erroneous
for later when the parameter expansion is actually done. This means eg. "false
&& ${}" will not generate an error which seems to be required by POSIX.
Include the invalid parameter expansion in the error message (sometimes
abbreviated with ... because recovering it would require a lot of code).

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.

is hard links. Overwritting when links > 1 would cause data
loss, which is usually undesired.
