- sprintf() can return negative value on error, so p += sprintf(p, blah)
is unsafe
- signed/unsigned mixup
- wrong assumption: sizeof(time_t) <= sizeof(int)
- need to init errno to 0 before strtoul()
then checking that against ULONG_MAX. Instead use a "unsigned long"
as the temporary variable. Then check against UINT32_MAX before
assigning back to the original variable.
first. This is necessary to avoid warnings with -fshort-enums. Casting
to an int really should be enough, but turns out not to be.
This change will be documented in doc/HACKS.
* There is no -indent option to .Bd or .Bl, although you would
never know that from its frequent use in this tree. There is a
"-offset indent" combination that makes sense, and you can certainly
say "-width indent".
* Also, you can't markup the -width option argument, tho you CAN
use a callable macro. So "-width Ar filename" doesn't make sense,
but either "-width Ar" or "-width filename" does, as might something
like "-width xxfilename" for a little extra space.
* There are a lot of needlessly complex hanging tag macros in man4 used
to create simple item lists. Those should be simplified one of these
days before someone copies and edits yet another man4 page.
Make sure that each va_start has one and only one matching va_end,
especially in error cases.
If the va_list is used multiple times, do multiple va_starts/va_ends.
If a function gets va_list as argument, don't let it use va_end (since
it's the callers responsibility).

if we are chrooting, write a symlink for the pid file so that ndc, etc,
continue to work as normal. this allows named to run in a chroot jail
with zero loss of functionality.
there's no real justification for most programs to spam /dev/console just
because syslog can't talk to syslogd isn't available, especially chatty
programs such as bind. (init, shutdown, reboot are probably exceptions here)
