998611f369 Fixed execvp() of an empty pathname to fail POSIXly. Previously it
attempted to exec the components of $PATH and it usually set errno
to the wrong value.

93424e6cf9 Fixed uninitialized variables for the '/'-in-pathname case in execvp().
Garbage in `eacces' caused the wrong errno to be set for non-EACCES errors.
Garbage in `etxtbsy' caused a semi-random retry strategy for ETXTBSY errors.

Found by:	NIST-PCTS.  gcc -Wall reported the problem, but -Wall is not
		enabled for libc.

85651f85da Fix execl[e]. Multiple execle's failed because of bogus caching of the
pointer returned by realloc().  All callers free the pointer if the
execve fails.  Nuke the caching.  This essentially restores buildargv()
to the 1.1.5 version.  Also fix a memory leak if realloc() fails.  Also
nuke similar but non-broken caching in execvp().  malloc() should be
efficient enough.
