72ec01bc0e Restore some information about the page rounding behavior of these
functions, with a little bit of a caution that the page rounding
behavior isn't mentioned in standards documents that mention brk/sbrk.
Klaus removed this before, but I'm not sure why, and I've been unable
to reach him about the matter after trying for several days. The
information about the behavior has always been in the page and is
important for developers to know about.

f31cd6341c note in BUGS that the prototype of our sbrk is not standards compliant
and will need fixing.

eeebdec53e Clean up this mess a lot. I believe we still have the following
issues (at least):

1) sbrk is defined as returning char *, which violates XPG
2) I'm not clear on what happens if you try to sbrk() on a negative
incr that is less than the page size. I'm guessing "nothing", but we
should document this behavior.
3) XPG says some interesting things about whether new pages are
guaranteed zeroed. We say nothing about this. We should document our
behavior.
4) It isn't clear if *we* guarantee that malloc and sbrk can be mixed
in our API (I've documented that it isn't universally portable.)

We really should clean these up, too.

311927221b Build system call stubs using system includes from ${DESTDIR}/usr/include
if DESTDIR is set.
This allows you to build a working libc which include syscall stubs
for new syscalls not defined in /usr/include/sys/syscall.h

b22750720f change:
.Sh "SEE ALSO"
to:
	.Sh SEE ALSO
The doc macros check for the latter (actually just for 'SEE' as the first
argument to .Sh) to set the section header SEE ALSO flag, which modifies
some behaviour (e.g. references done with .Rs/.Re).
