fbbd9655e5 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.

e103f5b1c0 msync(2) must return ENOMEM and not EINVAL when the address is outside the
allowed range or when one or more pages are not mapped. This according to
The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 7.

2faeeff4c9 mdoc(7) police: Tidy up the syscall language.
Stop calling system calls "function calls".

Use "The .Fn system call" a-la "The .Nm utility".

When referring to a non-BSD implementation in
the HISTORY section, call syscall a function,
to be safe.

c6ff3a1bf7 Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.

fbc400a67a 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.

7167d5b04c Convert caddr_t --> void * for sys/mman.h functions.
mlock, mmap, mprotect, msync, munlock, and munmap are defined by
POSIX as taking void *.  The const modifier has been added to
mlock, munlock, and mprotect as the standard dictates.

minherit comes from OpenBSD and has been updated to conform with
their recent change to void *.

madvise and mincore are not defined by POSIX, but their arguments
have been modified to be consistent with the POSIX-defined functions.
mincore takes a const pointer, but madvise does not due to the
MADV_FREE case.

7bdf80e571 Correctly use .Fn instead of .Nm to reference function names
in a bunch of man pages.

Use the correct .Bx  (BSD UNIX) or .At (AT&T UNIX) macros
instead of explicitly specifying the version in the text
in a bunch of man pages.
