Again, this is off by default for the moment. This probably should be
split into seperate files (like some of our other libc files that could
do with some splitting).

tree. Also merge in fix to NetBSD PR #1495. These represent 1.3-1.9 in
the OpenBSD tree. Make minor KNF changes to new code (which is in the
OpenBSD as 1.10). This avoids the symlink race problems.
These patches should go into 2.2.5 before the ship if they don't
break anything in -current.

POSIX says that this place is implementation defined and old variant allows
application block SIGALRM and sleep and not be killed by external SIGALRMs.
BTW, GNU sleep f.e. sleeps forever in blocked SIGALRM :-)

we were only eating them if the application did not call sleep()/usleep()

arc4random() is true random as designed, so its usage is library-safe.

semantics of the old sleep for compatability with a few decades of expected
side effects. Apache breaks if we just use nanosleep() for some reason,
here we use a new signanosleep() syscall which is kinda like a hybrid of
sigsuspend and nanosleep..

sleep used plain nanosleep)
These changes add the ability to specify that a UFS file/directory
cannot be unlinked. This is basically a scaled back version
of the IMMUTABLE flag. The reason is to allow an administrator
to create a directory hierarchy that a group of users
can arbitrarily add/delete files from, but that the hierarchy
itself is safe from removal by them.
If the NOUNLINK definition is set to 0
then this results in no change to what happens normally.
(and results in identical binary (in the kernel)).
It can be proven that if this bit is never set by the admin,
no new behaviour is introduced..
Several "good idea" comments from reviewers plus one grumble
about creeping featurism.
This code is in production in 2.2 based systems
-DUSE_NANOSLEEP. Also, seperate the code for _THREAD_SAFE so that it uses
the simpler threaded nanosleep() call in libc_r.. We don't go to the same
extremes for emulating traditional sleep semantics (ie: eating any SIGALRM
that might happen) which things like apache seem to depend on.
