If the mmap() call in rpc.statd fails, rpc.statd prints a warning
message and then dumps core because the subsequent code assumes that
mmap() succeeded. Since rpc.statd does not have fallback code to
implement the functionality needed to operate on the status file if
it is not memory mapped, rpc.statd should use err() to force the process
to exit if the mmap() call fails.
PR: bin/115430 (mmap() failure previously fixed in statd.c 1.12.8.2)
SM_NOTIFY procedure.
Remove our hand-coded one as it was causing world breakage for
worlds compiled with NOSHARED=yes because the static linker is a
bit less forgiving (or not as broken as) our dynamic linker.
Add $FreeBSD$ while I'm here.

- Use MAP_FAILED instead of the constant -1 to indicate
failure (required by POSIX).
- Removed flag arguments of '0' (required by POSIX).
- Fixed code which expected an error return of 0.
- Fixed code which thought any address with the high bit set
was an error.
- Check for failure where no checks were present.
