- Include <string.h> or <strings.h> depending on what function
is to be compiled.
- Use ANSI-C function definitions.

- Change the code a bit to hopefully save some cycles.
I.e. (simplified) change
a = b + 1;
while (--b & 0x7)
/* ... */

a = b;
for (; b & 0x7; b--)
/* ... */

while (--a >= 0)

- Equip two function arguments of swab() with the 'restrict'
type qualifier in form of the '__restrict' macro. This is
specified by POSIX.1-2001.
<strings.h> as the associated header file.
The prototypes have been moved there from <string.h> because
POSIX.1-2001 said so.
- Conditionally include either <strings.h> or <string.h> based
on whether the [r]index() or str[r]chr() functions are
compiled, respectively.
- Style(9) tells us to
- put a space after the return keyword
- to check for a NUL character without using the ! operator.
- use NULL instead of (type *)NULL where the compiler knows
the type.
Apply these rules.
- Rather use ANSI-C function definitions than K&R ones.
- For index(3), correct second function argument's type; it was
declared to be a `const char' before and is now an `int'.

- Tell the reader about this change in the HISTORY section.
- Switch to use an ANSI-C function definition.
- Include <strings.h> instead of <string.h> in the source file.
the prototypes for both functions are now in the <strings.h>
header, as required by IEEE Std 1003.1-2001.
- Add one sentence about that in the HISTORY section.
- Include <strings.h> in the source file to have the prototypes
in scope when the _ANSI_SOURCE macro is defined.

The corresponding bugs in <wchar.h> have no effect because the function
prototypes there don't have args so the __restrict "keyword" is
misinterpreted as an arg.
o Replace strncpy examples with less confusing ones from
OpenBSD. These examples give more detail and also suggest
using strlcpy(3).
