The entries in the NAME section of these man pages have man pages of their
own, so it doesn't make sense to have their names here, instead they
should be just described in the body (similar to what we do in math(3) man page).
This also helps whatis(1) and apropos(1), as otherwise you would see multiple
results with the same name in the output, while there is actually only one page
with that name.
Good example is:
$ apropos -n 2 -M realloc
realloc (3) general memory allocation operations
realloc (3) general purpose memory allocation functions
The first line is there because memory(3) man page had realloc in its
NAME section. This commit will fix this issue.

Document PT_SETSTEP and PT_CLEARSTEP in ptrace(2).
Try to explain more details of PT_SYSCALL and PT_SYSCALLEMU.
The description of PT_*STEP has been obtained from FreeBSD.

Fix couple of sentences
getmntoptstr, getmntoptnum, and freemntopts need to be linked to the getmntopts(3)
man page as well. Will do in a later commit after doing a relase build test.
The former lives in curses.h, but the latter lives in term.h.
This is solved by moving the function to libterminfo.
Because the environment can affect the terminal capabilities for
lines and columns, it follows that the tty size should affect it to.
So move that code to libterminfo and adjust in libcurses.
restore ABI compatibility with previous releases for ieeefp.h on sh3.
add namespace.h protection for all the fenv interfaces.
use MKSOFTFLOAT on sh3 instead of assuming softfloat.
standardize on comparing MKSOFTFLOAT with "no".
remove the arm-specific softfloat fenv code (which also had several bugs).
fix logic errors in the arm hardfloat feraiseexcept() and feupdateenv().
parsedate.3: add an item in BUGS noting the weirdness of "next"
The real purpose of this commit is to supply the following message
which should be used for the immediately previous commit, replacing
its commit message (the two are similar, but definitely not the
same). With thanks to gdt@ for pointing out one of the (many) errors
in the previous message (and noting others I had already seen).
----
Make parsedate handle "12 noon" and "12 midnight" (including when the
time given is "12:00" or "12:00:00") - but only for exactly 12 o'clock.
"12:00:01" is am or pm, not noon or midnight.
"12 am" remains as an alias for "12 midnight", and "12 pm" for noon,
though both are strictly (pedanticly) invalid (and meaningless.)
Note that "12 midnight" (or "12 am") means 00:00:00 (ie: midnight at
the start of the day, not at the end.)
syslog(3) is the one stop method of logging system events and diagnostics.
When debugging a daemon in the foreground on a terminal, each line is
prefixed with tag[pid]: which is very repetative and can take up valuable
screen estate.
LOG_PTRIM solves this by removing this prefix from stderr output.
There is also the case where the debugging could involve a dry-run and
syslog(3) calls would pollute the system log with incorrect data.
LOG_NLOG solves this by not writing the the system log, but allowing
LOG_PERROR to operate as before.
