o Implement -c (clear) to clear previously kept headers (note that
dumps not cleared will remain until -c is used),
o Implement -f (force) to allow re-saving a previously saved dump,
o Implement -k (keep) and make clearing the dump header the default,
o Implement -v (verbose) and make most output conditional upon it,
o Emit minimal output for the non-verbose case with the assumption
that savecore is run mostly from within /etc/rc,
o Update usage message to reflect what is and what's not,
o mark -d as obsolete.
Low-level changes:
o Rename devname to device, for devname mirrors a global declaration
and GCC 3.x warns about it,
o Open the dump device R/W for clear and !keep to work,
o Reorder the locals of DoFile according to style(9),
o Remove newlines from strings passed to warn* and err*,
o Use stat(2) to check if a dump has been saved before,
o Truncate existing core and info files to support force,
o First check for the magic and the version before we complain about
parity errors. This prevents emitting parity error messages when
there's no dump,
o Keep track of the number of headers found and the number of headers
saved to support the minimal output,
o Close files we opened in DoFile. Not critical, but cleaner.
I'll still be overseeing the changes that go into natd(8) and
will maintain it the way I see it, non-preventing for the rest
of developers.
I will re-ask for the MAINTAINER bit if the ${MAINTAINER} gets
defined.

of defining our own magicness for it, remove trivial comment.

that might have changed, then did a byte-by-byte comparison with
the alternate. If any unused fields got used, they had to be added
to the exception list. Such changes caused too many false alarms.
So, I have changed the comparison algorithm to compare a selected
set of fields that are not expected to change. This new algorithm
causes far fewer false hits and still does a good job of detecting
problems when they have really occurred. In particular, this change
should ease the transition to kernels supporting UFS2 which make
some significant changes to the superblock.

in dump byte order (=network byte order). Swap blocksize and dumptime
to avoid extraneous padding on 64-bit architectures. Use CTASSERT
instead of runtime checks to make sure the header is 512 bytes large.
Various style(9) fixes.

Commandline compatible with the previous savecore unless you specify
any options, none of them are implemented (yet).
Scans all devices marked "dump" or "swap" for dump header signatures
and saves dumps off under a name which is a MD5 hash of the header
information. This should give unique filenames. A *.info file contains
ascii version of the header information.
