c09f2f1d25 If the default path doesn't result in a match, bail out early instead of
running into a segmentation fault. Based on patch by Abhinav Upadhyay.

25998b2e56 Document the reality that the _build and _crunch commands should each
contain exactly one "%s".  The previous description allowed any number
of "%s" in the _build command, but that does not match the actual
behaviour of either man(1) or catman(8).

cbc22ad229 - centralize the snprintf code.
- use err where appropriate.
- add machclass which should be x86 when i386 and amd64 and can be specified
  in man.conf as:
	_i386	x86
	_amd64	x86
  so that we can support merged pages. Nothing uses this yet.

656e85b2f1 Mimic OSX behaviour:
On OS X it is possible to specify the manpage filename
with a full or relative path like this:

   man ./foo.5

or

   man /cd/foo/bar.1.gz

This is really helpful to view the manpage quickly while editing it.

d09fe2c467 modified man(1):
- avoid double slashes when displaying man pages (got tired
   of '/usr/share/man//cat1/man.0').
 - got rid of __P() while working on it.
 - incorporate some of my old notes explaining how manpath works into the
   comments of the code itself.
 - renamed some of the vars so that the code is consistent throughout
   (and hopefully clearer and easier to understand)
 - fixed relative man paths for multiple man pages (man did a chdir()
   on the first man page it had to format --- this broke any remaining
   relative path man pages left to process).   save old directory and
   fchdir() back to it after formatting.
 - improved doc on "man -h" which does more than just whatis(1) [e.g.
   "man -h fopen" prints the required include files and the prototypes
   rather than just the one-liner you get with whatis(1)]
 - manconf.c now fills in the "len" length field in the TAG/ENTRY
   structures (man now uses len).

revise man.conf file reading stuff to return error on failure in
addentry/gettag (fka getlist) rather than just err()ing out.   this
allows man(1) to call cleanup and delete its tmp files rather than
just leave them floating.  revise other apps using this code
(makewhatis, apropos, catman, whatis) to expect this.  also remove
__P on updated files.

82ad9348f2 rework the wording in these man pages (mainly in man.conf.5) based on
some old notes I found to make it clearer and easier to understand
how the man stuff works (hopefully!).

171d653219 Overhaul how `build.sh tools' are used:
*	Rename "config.h" to "nbtool_config.h" and
	HAVE_CONFIG_H to HAVE_NBTOOL_CONFIG_H.
	This makes in more obvious in the source when we're using
	tools/compat/config.h versus "standard autoconf" config.h

    *	Consistently move the inclusion of nbtool_config.h to before
    	<sys/cdefs.h> so that the former can provide __RCSID() (et al),
    	and there's no need to protect those macros any more.

These changes should make it easier to "tool-ify" a program by adding:
	#if HAVE_NBTOOL_CONFIG_H
	#include "nbtool_config.h"
	#endif
to the top of the source files (for the general case).
