a4b155d7a2 mdoc(7) police: Tidy up the syscall language.
Stop calling system calls "function calls".

Use "The .Fn system call" a-la "The .Nm utility".

When referring to a non-BSD implementation in
the HISTORY section, call syscall a function,
to be safe.

4ab3b5c0e7 Add the 'restrict' type qualifier to the prototypes of `sigaction',
`sigprocmask', `sigaltstack', and `sigwait' as well as to the
prototypes of the apparantly unimplemented functions `sigtimedwait'
and `sigwaitinfo'.  This complies with IEEE Std 1003.1-2001.

This might be a shortterm fix until the manpage is updated towards
