One of the things I really want to do, is to get rid of the limitations
of our current utmp(5) mechanism:
- It only allows 8 byte TTY device names.
- The hostname only allows 16 bytes of storage.
I'm not a big fan of <utmpx.h>, but I think we should at least try to
add parts of it. Unfortunately we cannot implement <utmpx.h>, because we
miss various fields, such as ut_id, ut_pid, etc. The API provided by
libulog shares some similarities with <utmpx.h>, so it shouldn't be too
hard to port these applications eventually. In most simple cases, it
should just be a matter of removing the ulog_ prefix everywhere.
As a bonus, it also implements a function called ulog_login_pseudo(),
which allows unprivileged applications to write log entries, provided
they have a valid file descriptor to a pseudo-terminal master device.
libulog will allow a smoother transition to a new file format by adding
a library interface to deal with utmp/wtmp/lastlog files. I initially
thought about adding the functionality to libutil, but because I'm not
planning on keeping this library around forever, we'd better keep it
separated.
Next items on the todo list:
1. Port applications in the base system (and ports) to libulog, instead
of letting them use <utmp.h>.
2. Remove <utmp.h>, implement <utmpx.h> and reimplement this library on
top.
3. Port as many applications as possible back to <utmpx.h>.
long instead of an int when examining the results of select() to look for
RPC requests. Previously this routine would ignore RPC requests to sockets
whose file descriptor mod 64 was greater than 31 on a 64-bit platform.

There are several reasons why it didn't work:
- It was missing <sys/cdefs.h> for __BEGIN_DECLS.
- It uses various primitive types that were not declared.

**environ entries. This puts non-getenv(3) operations in line with
getenv(3) in that bad environ entries do not cause all operations to
fail. There is still some inconsistency in that getenv(3) in the
absence of any environment-modifying operation does not emit corrupt
environ entry warnings.
I also fixed another inconsistency in getenv(3) where updating the
global environ pointer would not be reflected in the return values.
It would have taken an intermediary setenv(3)/putenv(3)/unsetenv(3)
in order to see the change.

execvPe() is called by _execvpe(), which we added to implement
posix_spawnp(). We just took execvP() and added the envp argument.
Unfortunately we forgot to change the implementation to use envp over
environ.
This fixes the following piece of code:
| char * const arg[2] = { "env", NULL };
| char * const env[2] = { "FOO=BAR", NULL };
| posix_spawnp(NULL, "/usr/bin/env", NULL, NULL, arg, env);

with the additional property that it is safe for routines in libc to use
in both single-threaded and multi-threaded processes. Multi-threaded
processes use the pthread_once() implementation from the threading library
while single-threaded processes use a simplified "stub" version internal
to libc. The libc stub-version of pthread_once() now also uses the
simplified "stub" version as well instead of being a nop.
