string to u_long and back using two functions, flags_to_string and
string_to_flags, which co-existed with 'ls'. As time has progressed
more and more other tools have used these private functions to
manipulate the file flags.
Recently I moved these functions from /usr/src/bin/ls to libutil,
but after some discussion with bde it's been decided that they
really ought to go in libc.
There are two already existing libc functions for manipulating file
modes: setmode and getmode. In keeping with these flags_to_string
has been renamed getflags and string_to_flags to setflags.
The manual page could probably be improved upon ;)
of getopt (as in, multiple input lines :). This is documented in the
man page and is used in the code, but unistd.h and stand.h do not
declare it. Incidentally, it prevents me fixing a bug in loader's
code... :-)

Duplicated the lseek() redeclaration hack for all functions involving
off_t's (ftruncate(), mmap() and truncate()) to help broken programs
work.
for gcc >= 2.5 and no-ops for gcc >= 2.6. Converted to use __dead2
or __pure2 where it wasn't already done, except in math.h where use
of __pure was mostly wrong.
in the POSIX section for a log time. The non-POSIX getgrouplist() and
setgroups() were recently added to the POSIX section although setgroups()
was already in the non-POSIX section.
