- nonstandard sector sizes didn't work because the sector size in the
ASCII label was not read before a (default, wrong) sector size was used.
- the exit status was 0 after exiting early due to an invalid ASCII label.

Reimplement pmap_remove() to be much more efficient at removing large
stretches of addresses.
As part of reimplementing pmap_remove() fix pmap_protect() so that it stands
a hope of working.

Option "-f filename" will write to filename, and filename can be - to
write to stdout. Option "-a filename" will append the output to filename.
Time(1) man page has been updated to reflect the change.

stderr error. The enclosed patches do 3 things:
(1) Silenced the output to stderr.
(2) Added a -v option to f2c and f77. This will turn on a verbose
mode, and dumps quite a bit of stuff to stderr.
(3) Updated the f2c man page.

Change the port address argument to pci_map_port to pci_port_t* which is
defined as u_int on the alpha, u_short on i386. This is a stopgap with a
hopefully limited lifetime.

For a tcp/nowait connection, inetd invokes accept(2) for
each pending connection; this call returns a file descriptor
associated with the new connection.
Twelve years ago, code was added to inetd to detect "failing
servers". The heuristic that identifies a failing server is
one that has been invoked a large number of times over some
specified interval (e.g., more than 128 ftp services started
in 60 seconds may flag the ftp service as "failing"). These
compile-time constants vary depending on vendor.
The problem is that, when a failing server is detected, the
code neglects to close the file descriptor returned by the
accept(2).
Security-Implications:
I suppose someone with ample free time could orchestrate an
attack buy pummeling services until the inetd process finally
runs out of file descriptors thus rendering inetd useless to
any new connections that require a new descriptor.
