Updated by peter following KSE and Giant pushdown.
I've running with this patch for two week with no ill side effects.

1) Allow the sending of more than one control message at a time
over a unix domain socket. This should cover the PR 29499.
2) This requires that unp_{ex,in}ternalize and unp_scan understand
mbufs with more than one control message at a time.
3) Internalize and externalize used to work on the mbuf in-place.
This made life quite complicated and the code for sizeof(int) <
sizeof(file *) could end up doing the wrong thing. The patch always
create a new mbuf/cluster now. This resulted in the change of the
prototype for the domain externalise function.
4) You can now send SCM_TIMESTAMP messages.
5) Always use CMSG_DATA(cm) to determine the start where the data
in unp_{ex,in}ternalize. It was using ((struct cmsghdr *)cm + 1)
in some places, which gives the wrong alignment on the alpha.
(NetBSD made this fix some time ago).
This results in an ABI change for discriptor passing and creds
passing on the alpha. (Probably on the IA64 and Spare ports too).
6) Fix userland programs to use CMSG_* macros too.
7) Be more careful about freeing mbufs containing (file *)s.
This is made possible by the prototype change of externalise.

is interrupted by saving the pid.
The old code would assign the return value to pid which would trash
it, to fix the problem save a copy of the pid to be used as the
paramter to wait4().

The corresponding bugs in <wchar.h> have no effect because the function
prototypes there don't have args so the __restrict "keyword" is
misinterpreted as an arg.
Note our implementation is not thread nor async-cancel safe.
Explicitely note atof() does not check nor report errors.
Note that strtod() should be used instead.
Also add C99 conformity status plus clarification that C99 leaves the
flushing of unwritten data, closure of open streams, and removal of
temporary files to the implementation.
of repeating unsuccessful lseek call on each write (original stdio bug).
2) Save errno accross _sseek call in _swrite to not touch it in case write
success (original stdio bug).
3) Add _sseek error checking back, but only for __SOPT mode now.
This is a first cut, but enough to help people interested in using it
further than before.

with non-seekable streams. Now here is what here was originally, but it is
ugly, producing unneded seek syscall on each non-seekable stream write. I'll
think about proper solution later.
