issue reported by scott cheloha ok otto

Remove the save_errno dance inside strerror_r(3). It is from the

2016-10-19T16:26:16+00:00

time when we had national language support. OK millert@

Roll back uintptr_t cast changes after discussions with tedu, otto and

2016-10-16T17:37:39+00:00

others. C11 6.5.6.9 says: When two pointers are subtracted, both shall point to elements of the same array object, or one past the last element of the array object; the result is the difference of the subscripts of the two array elements. In these cases the objects are arrays of char so the result is defined, and we believe that the report is based on a compiler incorrectly trapping on defined behaviour.

Cast pointers to uintptr_t to avoid potential signedness errors.

Based on patch from yuanjie.huang at windriver.com via OpenSSH bz#2608, with & ok millert, ok deraadt.

The destination string is declared as "s" but referred to as "dst"

2016-05-26T21:30:13+00:00

in some cases. Be consistent and use "dst" everywhere like for strlcat(3) and strncat(3). From Tim Kuijsten.

Add RETURN VALUES section and .Xr to memmem(3).

From Michal Mazurek . OK tedu@

for some time now mandoc has not required MLINKS to function

2016-03-30T06:38:43+00:00

correctly - logically complete that now by removing MLINKS from base; authors need only to ensure there is an entry in NAME for any function/ util being added. MLINKS will still work, and remain for perl to ease upgrades; ok nicm (curses) bcook (ssl) ok schwarze, who provided a lot of feedback and assistance ok tb natano jung

Phrase allocation failure more clearly. ok deraadt@

Document that these functions are now in strings.h.

The only thing that was translated into multiple languages in OpenBSD

2015-10-25T10:22:09+00:00

are the errno messages and signal names. Everything else is in English. We are not planning to translate more text. Running a mixed system with less than 1% of the text in native language makes no sense. So remove the NLS support from libc messages. The catopen(3) functions stay as they are. OK stsp@ mpi@
