Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
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.

This is rather pedantic, as for most architectures it holds that
sizeof(type *) == sizeof(type **)

in corrupted (interleaved) output. It is also fooled by non-exiting
children it did not start, failing to exit until all extraneous children
have exited.
This patch makes xargs keep track of children it starts, ignoring
pre-existing ones.
but don't expect a proper ASCII string to exist right here right now, don't
use strcmp(3) which checks for a NUL. As we're still building the argument
up, the next character might be garbage. It would probably be just as safe to
temporarily write a NUL there, but if we've reached the end of argument memory
that might not be the best idea, I think. It's unclear.
Doing it this way seems to meet the most with the original intent.

There was one problem in those fixes that broke -o, which is corrected

FreeBSD. This method attempts to centralize all the necessary hacks
or work arounds in one of two places in the tree (src/Makefile.inc1
and src/tools/build). We build a small compatibility library
(libbuild.a) as well as selectively installing necessary include
files. We then include this directory when building host binaries.
This removes all the past release compatibilty hacks from various
places in the tree. We still build on tip of stable and current. I
will work with those that want to support more, although I anticipate
it will just work.
Many thanks to ru@, obrien@ and jhb@ for providing valuable input at
various stage of implementation, as well as for working together to
positively effect a change for the better.

when you do stuff like ``find ... | xargs interactive_application''.
Without -o, the application would inherit the pipe as its stdin, and
you thus lose any control over it.
This flag has been carefully chosen to not conflit with other options
of other xargs utilities like GNU xargs.
