o Make sure the arguments to ctx_wrapper() are loaded from the
backing store by forcing an underflow. Do this by making all
registers in the register frame local.
is not called, and no static rules match an outgoing packet, the
latter retains its source IP address. This is in support of the
"static NAT only" mode.
o Up to 8 arguments are allowed. This is the number of arguments
passed in registers. Subsequent registers are passed on the stack.
Trying to deal with this is not easy in C and likely forces us to
use assembly code. Let's avoid that for now. There's no indication
that more than 8 arguments is a strong requirement (Linux also has
an 8 argument limit).
o We expect that the stack base is 16-byte aligned and the stack
size is a multiple of 16-byte. We bomb out if this is not the case.
We probably want to be less strict by enforcing it ourselves. For
now it's better to not hide gross alignment bogons by silently
correcting it.
an excessive close() on one of these descriptors would cause
a memory for this descriptor to be allocated in the internal
descriptor table. When this descriptor gets used again, e.g.
through the call to open() or socket(), the descriptor would
be erroneously left in the blocking mode, and the whole
application would get stuck on a blocking operation, e.g.,
in accept(2).
Prevent this bug from happening by disallowing close() against
non-active descriptors (return -1 and set errno to EBADF in
this case).

to a buffer in the big key/data case, memmove() was used on pointers
to size_ts, but only sizeof(u_int32_t) bytes where copied. This broke
on big_endian architectures where sizeof(size_t) > sizeof(u_int32_t).
This bug broke portupgrade (by way of ruby_bdb1) on sparc64.

Register libpthread-specific locking API with rtld on startup.
This still has some rough edges with signals which should be
addresses later.

a problem when an application that hasn't yet become threaded
tries to jump out of a signal handler.

encourage calls to the mutex functions with null pointers to mutexes.

more than once.
Explicitly compare cond pointers with PTHREAD_COND_INITIALIZER instead
of NULL. Just because it happens to be defined as NULL is no reason
to encourage the idea that people can call those functions with
NULL pointers to a condition variable.

future, we'll eliminate spinlocks from libc but that will wait
until after 5.1-release.
Don't call an application signal handler if the handler is
the same as the library-installed handler. This seems to
be possible after a fork and is the cause of konsole hangs.

uses a complete different way to get the credentials so this patch
only applies to FreeBSD.
