4251f87df7 PR/51958: Ngie Cooper: ESRCH error description in hcreate(3) contains typo

5acf460d25 Mark exect(3) obsolete and bind it to plain execve(2) on all platforms 
The original exect(2) from BSD4.2 was enabling bit for tracing
(single-step mode) and calling execve(2). The purpose of it was to generate
a signal for a tracer once the application will change its image to a new
program.

This approach no longer works as:
 - exect(2) traces (single-steps) libc and it requires hundreds or
   thousands steps before entering a new image
 - it's vax and x86 specific code
 - this functionality has been moved to the kernel - once a process is
   traced it will generate SIGTRAP with si_code TRAP_EXEC and route it to
   its debugger
 - the side effects and unportability make this interface unusable
 - there are no known users of this interface
 - it apparently never worked better since day0 of NetBSD ("day0 bug")

Users are requested to move to other execve(2) variants. Calling current
execve(2) as it is the most similar behavior to this one from BSD4.2.

Discussed several times on mailing lists and in PR/51700.

Add warning to exect(3) telling about marking this function obsolete.

This function is prepared to be removed in next libc major bump.

c58abbea19 Document in libc's shlib_version request for exect(3) removal 
This functionality has been moved long time to the kernel. Kernel exec()
emits SIGTRAP under a debugger (unless PT_SYSCALL traced).

cc576e1d8e Update supporting files for components which rely on autoconf to allow systems 
introducing since release of software to be recognised. This should hopefully
allow the builds to progress a littles further on systems such as the POWER8
which features a little endian 64-bit PowerPC CPU identified as ppc64le.

8dcd50a6a0 Move ESCDELAY to curses.c so all globals are close to each other. 
Remove _reentrant and use ESCDELAY and TABSIZE as we're not really
reentrant.

64b2ce979c If either set_escdelay(3) or set_tabsize(3) are called, set _reentrant 
to ensure we use the saved value for the sceen.

This effectively makes ESCDELAY and TABSIZE read-only when either
of these functions are called.
