All the rest work! Actually, I don't know if chio works because I can't
test that. df can be built using NetBSD's mount.h. ps depends on libkvm
so there is no point trying.
o Added the -H and -P options for treatment of symbolic links.
o Removed the #ifdef BSD4_4_LITE, since it does not seem to do anything
useful
o Fixed up prn_octal() so its output looks more like that of AT&T Unices
when -b is given.
The next two lines apply only to the first two changes above:
PR: bin/6140

o Added a new '-b' which behaves as in AT&T Unices (show unprintables in
octal, using C escape codes when possible)
o Added '?' to the getopt() string, since the code in the switch considers
it as a valid option.
specifies exiting with a zero status if the file was copied
successfully, and with a nonzero status if an error occurred. We
are too sloppy to tell if the file was copied successfully when we
get killed by a SIGINT, but it is unlikely to have been. Added a
comment about related sloppiness (calling exit() from a signal
handler).
urgent need is when you run sh around a program that intentionally
uses SIGQUIT/SIGINT for asynchronous events, i.e. $EDITOR started from
system(2), like many mailers do. This fixes PR bin/1206 and possibly
bin/4241.
The solution committed has been tested for a large number of possible
cases (see recent discussion on cvs-committers). I completed a make
world, made sure 'make world' is interruptable and used the changed
/bin/sh as a login shell all day, including job control and using
SIGQUIT-catching programs (to write this message :-).

printed a bogus warning with a stale errno if write() returns a short
count. Now we continue copying. We still print a bogus warning if
write() returns an "impossible" short count of 0.
that this source is compiled against. This source is referenced by
install which is needed as a build tool and must be able to compile
against NetBSD headers and libraries if we have a hope of supporting
another architecture.
With this change, that's two working programs down and 3945 (?) to go.
The other one was make, but that didn't need any changes to work under
FreeBSD/Alpha. 8-)
following of the symlink for `rmdir symlink/' and is unnecessary
for ordinary directories (POSIX doesn't require rmdir(1) to do
anything for trailing slashes; it requires rmdir(2) to let them
"refer to a directory", and following the symlink for symlink/ is
what BSD does). This also fixes bugs in the slash-stripping code
(for paths consisting entirely of slashes, the pointer into the
string was decremented to "before" the beginning of the string,
and the path was at best stripped to "".
The behaviour is unchanged except for the final directory for
`rmdir -p ...'. There is no alternative to stripping intermediate
slashes since they must be specified. The sloppy slash-stripping
code is adequate for intermediate directories, since the all-slashes
case fails early.

for users who are root, or in group wheel. This is useful on large timesharing
systems where a PS command can cause the system to grind to a halt. The
ability to get the information isn't diminished for those who really need the
additional detail (administrators.) Normal users won't see any difference unless
the processes are swapped out. The "really get it mode" is invoked by the
use of an additional flag in the command string "-f". New/old behavior is
selectable with a compile option.

Add an option to the way UFS works dependent on the SUID bit of directories
This changes makes things a whole lot simpler on systems running as
fileservers for PCs and MACS. to enable the new code you must
1/ enable option SUIDDIR on the kernel.
2/ mount the filesystem with option suiddir.
hopefully this makes it difficult enough for people to
do this accidentally.

cast value that was always ignored. Rev.1.9 of trap.c made this
more bogus by returning a semantically different value after calling
siginterrupt(). Avoid these problems by not returning a value.
trap 'echo xxx' 1 2 3 15
read x
is not interrupted by ^C (due to restartable read syscall) and must be
interrupted per POSIX
Worse case:
read -t 5 x
hangs forever after ^C pressed (supposed to timeout after 5 secs)
Fixed by adding siginterrupt(signo, 1) after catch handler installed
2) Do not reinstall sighandler immediately after it is called,
BSD do it for us
'read' command to return an error if the user fails to supply any
input withink a given time period. The behaviour of this option is
similar to that of the like-named option in ksh93.
