Bring back fixes from revision 1.75:
- Fix a couple of bugs to make the following two echo statements print the
same output as they should:
line='#define bindir "/usr/bin" /* comment */'
echo "${line%%/\**}"
echo ${line%%/\**}
1. ISDBLQUOTE() was not working properly for non VSNORMAL expansions because
varnest was incremented before the variable was completely parsed. Add
an insub adjustment to keep track of that.
2. When we have a quoted backslash, we either need to escape twice, because
one level of escaping will be stripped later (in the variable substitution
case) or simply enter the backslash.

- Make macros statements
Write out the mmap-ed data in small chunks to avoid locking the output
file for a long time.
Suggested by David Holland on "source-changes-d" mailing list.
a very annoying property: if the source media is slow (like a slow
network), the target file will be locked for the duration of the
entire max 8MB write and cause processes attempting to e.g. stat()
it to "tstile" (for several minutes in the worst case). Revisit
this if/when vnode locking gets a little smarter.
chs ok (although he would rather see vnode locking improvements,
but that's a slightly larger project)
if user don't specify --force-local but opened file is actually
a local file.
- Make cpio to accept -F option as described in manpage.
- Make pax to set forcelocal flag if requested to do so.
- Add missing break statement.
This document should now serve as a reasonable tutorial for the
modern POSIX shell. Comments and additional fixes for mistakes I may
have made are solicited.
