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.

Remove the temp directory in trap.
Replace the buggy awk script with a correct perl script.
Don't make a copy of the input data anymore if the input is already
sorted (option -presort). This scheme avoid large temporary files in
/tmp.
- Use MAP_FAILED instead of the constant -1 to indicate
failure (required by POSIX).
- Removed flag arguments of '0' (required by POSIX).
- Fixed code which expected an error return of 0.
- Fixed code which thought any address with the high bit set
was an error.
- Check for failure where no checks were present.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Old locate(1) programs still works with the new database format, print
some garbage for 8 bit characters, but don't core (maybe except char 30).
7-Bit Puritan should not notice any difference. Same speed,
Same database size if the database contain only ASCII characters.
