329223e6f2 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.

ff58456baf Avoid the potentially confusing term "a null pointer" and say "the NULL
pointer" instead.  The potential confusion arises because the string/*.3
pages use the term "null-terminated string" (which is permissable).  Moreover,
this also makes these two manpages more consistent with the other string/*.3
manpages.

b96c3bcd66 __collate_substitute() do something non-trivial only for German. For everyone
else, it is equivalent to strdup(). So, we will check if  the substitution
tables are trivial at the load time, and possibly save 2 calls to
__collate_substitute() in strcoll().

Still, __collate_substitute() should not exist.

f7a8bc4c04 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.

fd943454de Handle machine-dependent (m-d) (string) sources more automatically.
The names of m-d variants are now added (manually) to MDSRCS instead
of to SRCS, and the names of all machine-independent (m-i) variants
that can reasonably be replaced by an m-d variant are now added
(manually) to MISRCS instead of to SRCS, so that a simple substitution
can be used to discard the unused m-i variants.  MISRCS is potentially
all m-i sources, but the substitution is too simple to be fast, so
MISRCS should be kept reasonably small.

libc/Makefile.inc:
Do the substitution.

libc/i386/string/Makefile.inc:
Add to MDSRCS instead of to SRCS.  Add the names of all sources in this
directory, but no others.

libc/string/Makefile.inc
Add to MISRCS instead of to SRCS.  Add the names of all sources in this
directory.  Don't use (broken) explicit rules for special cases.
