missing for a while yet its disappearance was unnoticed because…
• distrib/special/mksh/Makefile: sync check categories, this was missed
• mksh.hts: sync clog
the latter is required by HP-sUX, okay, and apparently the
preferred one by glibc (GNU libdrepper?), but breaks on al-
most all other systems I have access to (Slowlaris, Midnight
DragonFly NetBSD, Darwin, at least)
• fix file description, history, etc.
• require <stddef.h> for portable size_t declaration (if ! kernel, bootloader)
• mention why we do _not_ include <string.h> (for building on obsd/mbsd)
• sync RCSID definition with that of mksh (more portable)
• fix strlcat description
• sync strlcpy obsd rcsid and licence header with obsd-current
(their code change 1.10→1.11 was something we already did)
• use “does not”, not “doesn’t”
• make it easier to produce wcslfun.c
libc wcslfun.c:
• sync with strlfun.c (much easier now)
mksh strlcpy.c:
• sync with strlfun.c (in comments, mostly)
no binary changes
since mksh(1) did go into an infinite loop if that fails first
bug spotted, initial patch and help drafting a test case
From: Decklin Foster <decklin@red-bean.com>
note there are more instances of unlink(2) and others (like chmod(2), as
spotted by flawfinder) which aren’t checked… but at least the other case
of unlink(2) use in histrap.c doesn’t cause any trouble (I think)
and make it fit into mksh’s model (also gives us a couple of things
GNU bash doesn’t have
• add regression tests for all of these
Lukas “smultron” Upton from MidnightBSD spotted a script with /bin/sh
shebang invalidly using “&>” in some Apple backup toolkit, 10x
XXX why fds are limited to one digit?

to signed rather. oops.
In this case: reset the locale to “C” at start.
Otherwise, perl/OpenBSD fails in an UTF-8 environment, just
because OpenBSD 4.3/zaurus still has no locales in 2008.
• my_pid = getpid(); setpgid(0, my_pid);
• if it hasn’t failed, the following is true: getpgrp() == my_pid
at least this is what I gather from TFM and the kernel source
waldi _thinks_ so, too
‣ macro afreechk() is superfluous
• get rid of macro afreechv() by re-doing the “don’t leak that much” code
• some KNF (mostly, whitespace and 80c) while here
strip it, but that might have other problems, better is to use realpath(2),
e.g. via readlink(1), for normalisation, or have the sysop fix it)
XXX make realpath a builtin?
* initialise the integers PPID, OPTIND, RANDOM, SECONDS, and TMOUT to base-10
* bring back PGRP as base-10 integer to the process group via getpgrp(2)
* initialise USER_ID as base-10 integer to the effective user id as retrieved
from geteuid(2) = $(id -u)
* use $USER_ID in dot.mkshrc instead of spawning an id(1) process
-> dot.mkshrc,v 1.34 now requires mksh R34
* convert more int to bool where appropriate
* remove dead code - getpgrp(2) cannot fail
* sync manual page to reality
* bump to mksh R34(beta) - feature freeze
XXX check if our_pgrp in jobs.c is still really needed, the setpgid call
XXX probably just makes us our own pgrp leader, and we might have to use
XXX and update kshpgrp accordingly - need feedback/help here but I think
XXX this simplification should be possible if I grok the code correctly.
etc/profile:
* adjust to $USER_ID changes in mksh (speed-up here, too)
mksh.hts:
* sync changelog
