56aefdcd10 Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.

61c79b122e Add link(1) and unlink(1) as special cases of ln(1) and rm(1)
respectively, in accordance with SUSv2.

This differs from the approach taken in NetBSD, but provides
less obscure error messages in at least the EISDIR case and
does not take up additional disk space for new binaries.

34378e1d7c Revert part of the previous commit. Keep the example that shows how the
"-h" flag is used, but use "chown" in the example instead of "file".

4091174196 Change description of file(1) following symlinks to the truth (namely,
by default, file(1) does not follow symlinks, the -L flag must be
specified.

808a36ef65 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

cc2ce1192f Nuke the undocumented -F flag, since it doesn't do anything anymore.
It used to allow root to hard-link directories (and screw up programs that
expexted the ".." entry to point to the parent dir)

4bd4925bd2 Use lstat() instead of stat() for checking if the final source file exists,
so that `ln -fs' works when the source is a symlink pointing to a non-
existent file.

61ca3e5cab fix ln to accept -f again. Thanks Bruce. Seems that Joe Grosch isn't
quite as safe as I thought.  I will have to look much closer on his
patches.  Damn.
