Needed to be able to cross-build on systems with a feeble awk (SunOS-5.9
for example). Example error message is:
awk: record `#define CTL_IPPROTO_...' has too many fields
record number 404
and not /usr/bin/strip. This makes nbinstall usable for
cross-compiling in pkgsrc.
- Fix a typo in a comment.
- Fix strip() in the context of (v)fork:
- Build the argument string first using asprintf (simpler) and
avoid leaking memory from the child in the parent.
- Don't use warn in the child, as stdio should be avoided.

handle and default to 64k instead of the 1k (BUFSIZ) static buffer.
This makes a large difference in performance of some applications.
Make the buffer size tunable from the command line.
file into chunk_count smaller files. Each file will be size/chunk_count
bytes large, with whatever spillover there is ending up in the chunk_counth
file.
- add raw mode [-r]
- add -g and -m to get the goal and max respectively.
- document that lines that start with a period or look like mail headers
don't get formatted.
FORTIFY_SOURCE feature of libssp, thus checking the size of arguments to
various string and memory copy and set functions (as well as a few system
calls and other miscellany) where known at function entry. RedHat has
evidently built all "core system packages" with this option for some time.
This option should be used at the top of Makefiles (or Makefile.inc where
this is used for subdirectories) but after any setting of LIB.
This is only useful for userland code, and cannot be used in libc or in
any code which includes the libc internals, because it overrides certain
libc functions with macros. Some effort has been made to make USE_FORT=yes
work correctly for a full-system build by having the bsd.sys.mk logic
disable the feature where it should not be used (libc, libssp iteself,
the kernel) but no attempt has been made to build the entire system with
USE_FORT and doing so will doubtless expose numerous bugs and misfeatures.
Adjust the system build so that all programs and libraries that are setuid,
directly handle network data (including serial comm data), perform
authentication, or appear likely to have (or have a history of having)
data-driven bugs (e.g. file(1)) are built with USE_FORT=yes by default,
with the exception of libc, which cannot use USE_FORT and thus uses
only USE_SSP by default. Tested on i386 with no ill results; USE_FORT=no
per-directory or in a system build will disable if desired.
