Can be used by applications that have their own SIGINT (et al)
handlers and want to exit in a manner that correctly
signals to the parent that the process was terminated by a signal.

Discussed on tech-userlevel@.
Enabled via per_user_tmp in /etc/rc.conf (default off).
See security(8) and rc.conf(5) for more details.
Lots of input from thorpej@ & christos@, thanks!
bin/ls sources to libutil:
o Bump libutil minor version number
o Fix uses to include <util.h> to pick up the function definitions
o Fix most uses of flags_to_string() to release the now-malloc()ed result
Improve the pw_policy(3) API by splitting it to two functions, one to load
the policy from /etc/passwd.conf and another to test passwords against the
policy.
Some bug fixes, more consistent code, and man-page updates.
Minor for libutil bumped.

Man-page written with much help and tips from David Maxwell, Hubert
Feyrer, and Thomas Klausner.
This bumps libutil minor to 7.

and add "errbuf" and "errbufsz" parameters so that errors can be handled
gracefully, rather than simply exiting the process.
- Add a pw_copy() wrapper around pw_copyx() to preserve old behavior for
apps that use it.
- Bump shlib version to 7.4.
- The pw_setprefix() function defines the root directory used for passwd
file updates. If the prefix is set to /newroot pw_lock() will operate on
/newroot/etc/ptmp afterwards. The default prefix is an empty string.
- The pw_getprefix() function returns the root directory which is currently
used for passwd file updates.
minor of libc and the major of libutil). For little-endian architectures
merge the bnswap() assembly versions with nto* and hton* using symbols
aliasing. Use symbol renaming for the bswap function in this case to avoid
namespace pollution.
Declare bswap* in machine/bswap.h, not machine/endian.h. For little-endian
machines, common code for inline macros go in machine/byte_swap.h
Sync libkern with libc.
Adjust #include in kernel sources for machine/bswap.h.

is identical to passed passwd (old_pw). If not, abort.
Update documentation, bump major version due to change to pw_copy.
