dc9bf9361a Fixed $Id$.
Removed POSIX.1/NetBSD markup (braces) for NAME_MAX, etc.  We don't
define this.  Most FreeBSD man pages hard-code the limits; in fact,
utimes.2 recently became the only file in libc/sys/*.2 that mentions
NAME_MAX.  There probably should be mandoc macros for this.

9aa55ad5ba asprintf() does use realloc() internally, but saying so in the manpage can be
misinterpreted to mean that the pointer passed to asprintf() must be suitable
for passing to realloc() as-is (ie. either a NULL pointer or a valid pointer).

02cdc154c9 Backed out previous commit. devname.3 and devname.c were broken in Lite1
(devname() returned "??" when the lookup failed, but callers expected it
to return NULL).  This was fixed in Lite2, but until recently the changes
were only merged into devname.3.  A day or two after devname.c was fixed,
devname.3 was made inconsistent again by backing out most of the Lite2
changes.

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.
