f7a8bc4c04 Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

     .\"    $Id$
     .\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

f12d02958a Submitted by: (based on code in "Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment"
by W.Richard Ste vens. EINTR handling suggested by bde@freebsd.org).

Code cleanup:

1. Add missing return type.
2. Replace 'union wait' by int.
3. Use Posix-style signal handling instead of signal().
4. Use fork() instead of deprecated vfork().
5. Block signals before fork()'ing, instead of after.
6. Return -1 if fork() fails, instead of 0.
7. Add EINTR handling for waitpid() call.

Also add claim of Posix conformance to man page.

f153098d8f Fixed a bunch of man page cross references that were
in the main text of various man pages.

Thanks to Warner Losh for adding an option to manck to allow
it to scan the entire man page looking for bogus xrefs, instead
of just checking the SEE ALSO section.
