get an error messages followed by 20 or 30 lines of harmless warnings.
There are lots of other warning messages in config(8) that are printed

Now if a file is listed as a specific entry, it will not *also* be
processed by an entry specifying a pattern. And filename-patterns
will now only match existing files (ignoring directories, etc).

will contain the pid for a process group. This means the file must
contain a negative value (as would be needed in the 'kill' commmand).
I still need to write man-page update before MFC-ing.
This started by rewriting the get_pid() routine. Later I looked at
what OpenBSD has, and included a few ideas from their send_signal()
routine. So, parts of this change are from OpenBSD, even though
OpenBSD does not actually have a 'U' flag.

specified, because we assume a -sR request is coming from the process
which would have been signaled, and that it has already released the

should rotate all files given on the command, even if they don't seem to
need to be rotated. This would be used by some other command that decides
the given log file(s) should be rotated, but wants the "how" of that rotation
to be determined by entries to newsyslog. Wes expects to change syslogd to
take advantage of this. Man page will be updated after we're sure this is
all working the way we want it to.

not send a signal to any processes. Also add a config-file flag of 'N' or
'n', which indicates that the given logfile has no process which needs a
signal when it is rotated. Both of these are based on changes NetBSD
has made, although the implementation is somewhat different.

read from CD from 2k to 16k, because in the modern world of meta-packages
(Gnome et al) the length of this list could easily owerflow limit causing
strange things to happen, ranging from installation failure due to list
truncation to complete stack trashing (there is very vague bounds checking).
For example, x11/gnome2-fifth-toe runtime dependencies list is 2,418 bytes

Due to obvious reasons, this is an immediate MFC candidate.

Fixed memory leak in the "nodevice" option implementation.
Use these instead of sed(1) in MD NOTES.
Use a single makefile (sys/conf/makeLINT.mk) to generate
LINT for all architectures. (Previous versions missed
the LINT dependency on Makefile, and i386 version also
missed the dependency on ${NOTES}.)
Fixed bugs in the previous NOTES conversion using the
"nodevice" token and sed(1):
- i386 LINT lost "device pst".
- pc98 LINT lost SC_*, MAXCONS and KBD_DISABLE_KEYMAP_LOAD
options, and got needless DPT_* options.
- Added nooptions PPC_DEBUG, PPC_PROBE_CHIPSET, KBD_INSTALL_CDEV
to sparc64 LINT so that it has a chance to config(8).
This basically returns us to where we were before.

post-deinstall script, the variable intended to hold the name of that
script would be used uninitialized. In some cases, fexists() would
succeed, causing pkg_delete to try to chmod +x it, then execute it,
resulting in bizarre error messages such as:

This bug would normally only occur when multiple packages were
specified on the command line; otherwise post_script would be located
in a previously unused part of the stack, and implicitly (but quite
accidentally) initialized to all-zeros.
