c87367fab4 Document the .Rv (return values) macro.
".Rv -std atexit" will generate the following text:

The atexit() function returns the value 0 if successful; otherwise the
value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the
error.

302d7fa018 Fixed misuse of .Ft for enum members. (.Fa seems to be the best
available macro for enum, struct and union members.  .Ft seems to
be the best available macro for enum, struct and union tags and
types).

Fixed missing void arg types.

Moved the descriptions of the .Em, .Li and .Sy macros into
the new "Font Modes" sub-section along with .Bf, since they are
all related.

42c163c5c7 Add "Lion's Commentary on UNIX, 6th Ed. w/source code".
Yep, you heard it, this book has survived since 1997 via the photocopier
underground.  Well SCO decided it is now safe for us to see the 6th ed.
Kernel source.  :-)

b760adc23c Added UNIX System Architecture by Prabhat Andleigh.
This is a really nice small (274 pages) book on UNIX architecture.
It "reads" like K&R, has good straightforward explantions and nice diagrams
of structures and things, w/o unnessiary bulk.  It covers both BSD and sysV.
I wish this had been the textbook for my undergrad OS class rather
than Tannenbam.

f8bda83de0 Fixed wrong #include in synopsis. <sys/dir.h> has been deprecated for
years.

Not fixed: stale, misformatted copy of <dirent.h>.  I will be cleaning
up the dirent.h and dir.h headers soon (ufs stuff needs to be separated
better), so don't change the man page yet.
