* Prefer one CHECKSTRSPACE with multiple USTPUTC to multiple STPUTC.
* Add STPUTS macro (based on function) and use it instead of loops that add
nul-terminated strings to the stack string.
No functional change is intended, but code size is about 1K less on i386.
If getcwd fails, do not treat this as an error, but print a warning and
unset PWD. This is similar to the behaviour when starting the shell in a
directory whose name cannot be determined.
Since is_alpha/is_name/is_in_name were made ASCII-only, this can no longer
happen.
Additionally, the check was wrong because it did not include the new
CTLQUOTEEND.
This was removed in 2001 but I think it is appropriate to add it back:
* I do not want to encourage people to write fragile and non-portable echo
commands by making printf much slower than echo.
* Recent versions of Autoconf use it a lot.
* Almost no software still wants to support systems that do not have
printf(1) at all.
* In many other shells printf is already a builtin.
Side effect: printf is now always the builtin version (which behaves
identically to /usr/bin/printf) and cannot be overridden via PATH (except
via the undocumented %builtin mechanism).
Code size increases about 5K on i386. Embedded folks might want to replace
/usr/bin/printf with a hard link to /usr/bin/alias.
The information in sh(1) about the echo builtin is equivalent, though less
extensive.
The echo(1) man page (bin/echo/echo.1) is different.
Unfortunately, sh's echo builtin and /bin/echo have gone out of sync and
this probably cannot be fixed any more.

In particular, remove the text about ksh-like features, which are usually
taken for granted nowadays. The original Bourne shell is fading away and for
most users our /bin/sh is one of the most minimalistic they know.
This moves the function of the noaliases variable into the checkkwd
variable. This way it is properly reset on errors and aliases can be used
normally in the commands for each case (the case labels recognize the
keyword esac but no aliases).
The new code is clearer as well.

These do something else in ksh: name=(...) is an array or compound variable
assignment and the others are extended patterns.
This is the last patch of the ones tested in the exp run.

Apart from detecting breakage earlier or at all, this also fixes a segfault
in the testsuite. The "handling" of the breakage left an invalid internal
representation in some cases.
Examples:
echo a; do echo b
echo `) echo a`
echo `date; do do do`

subevalvar() incorrectly assumed that CTLESC bytes were present iff the
expansion was quoted. However, they are present iff various processing such
as word splitting is to be done later on.
Example:
v=@$e@$e@$e@
y="${v##*"$e"}"
echo "$y"
failed if $e contained the magic CTLESC byte.

The code is inspired by NetBSD sh somewhat, but different because we
preserve the old Almquist/Bourne/Korn ability to have an unquoted part in a
quoted ${v+word}. For example, "${v-"*"}" expands to $v as a single field if
v is set, but generates filenames otherwise.
Note that this is the only place where we split text literally from the
script (the similar ${v=word} assigns to v and then expands $v). The parser
must now add additional markers to allow the expansion code to know whether
arbitrary characters in substitutions are quoted.
Example:
for i in ${$+a b c}; do echo $i; done

If double-quote state does not match, treat the '}' literally.
This ensures double-quote state remains the same before and after a
${v+-=?...} which helps with expand.c.
It makes things like
${foo+"\${bar}"}
which I have seen in the wild work as expected.

This is a syntax error.
POSIX does not say explicitly whether defining a function with the same name
as a special builtin is allowed, but it does say that it is impossible to
call such a function.
A special builtin can still be overridden with an alias.
This commit is part of a set of changes that will ensure that when
something looks like a special builtin to the parser, it is one. (Not the
other way around, as it remains possible to call a special builtin named
by a variable or other substitution.)

Add some conservative checks on function names:
- Disallow expansions or quoting characters; these can only be called via
strange control characters
- Disallow '/'; these functions cannot be called anyway, as exec.c assumes
they are pathnames
- Make the CTL* bytes work properly in function names.
These are syntax errors.
POSIX does not require us to support more than names (letters, digits and
underscores, not starting with a digit), but I do not want to restrict it
that much at this time.

This is how ksh93 treats ! within a pipeline and makes the ! in
a | ! b | c
negate the exit status of the pipeline, as if it were
a | { ! b | c; }
Side effect: something like
f() ! a
is now a syntax error, because a function definition takes a command,
not a pipeline.

For multi-command pipelines,
1. all commands are direct children of the shell (unlike the original
Bourne shell)
2. all commands are executed in a subshell (unlike the real Korn shell)

immediately written into the stack after the call. Instead let the caller
manage the "space left".
Previously, growstackstr()'s assumption causes problems with STACKSTRNUL()
where we want to be able to turn a stack into a C string, and later
pretend the NUL is not there.
This fixes a bug in STACKSTRNUL() (that grew the stack) where:
1. STADJUST() called after a STACKSTRNUL() results in an improper adjust.
This can be seen in ${var%pattern} and ${var%%pattern} evaluation.
2. Memory leak in STPUTC() called after a STACKSTRNUL().

expr(1) should usually not be used as various forms of parameter expansion
and arithmetic expansion replicate most of its functionality in an easier
way.
getopt(1) should not be used at all in new code. Instead, getopts(1) or
entirely manual parsing should be used.
