groff(1) has changed the internal layout for the .Lb doc strings, but to
preserve backwards compatibility we cannot simply rename them, we need
to create new aliases so that these will work with old and new macros.

Use EINVAL instead of EDOOFUS. Add a missing synopsis for
pidfile_fileno() in the man page. Move the definition of struct pidfh
from libutil.h into pidfile.c following upstream change.
We mention that these are now superseded by the glibc implementations,
make the headers cope with already declared functions on glibc-based
systems, and document this in the man pages.
We have moved all man pages to section 3bsd, let's do the same for the
page title, and in all the references for uniformity and to avoid
confusions.

Rework arc4random_stir() and arc4random_addrandom() code over the new
internal API, and documentation in the man page. Adapt the code to the
local build system.

The funtools project ships a man page with the same, name. And although
it mith probably make more sense to rename the man page there, as BSD
systems will certainly not do so, this is the easiest and fastest way
to avoid a file conflict.
This is a wrapper over the glibc fopencookie() function.
We diverge from the FreeBSD, OpenBSD and DragonFlyBSD declarations,
because seekfn() there wrongly uses fpos_t, assuming it's an integral
type, and any code using that on a system where fpos_t is a struct
(such as GNU-based systems or NetBSD) will fail to build. In which case,
as the code has to be modified anyway, we might just as well use the
correct declaration.
The automatic initialization cannot be part of the main shared library,
because there is no thread-safe way to change the environ global
variable. This is not a problem if the initializaion happens just at
program load time, but becomes one if the shared library is directly or
indirectly dlopen()ed during the execution of the program, which could
have either kept references to the old environ or could change it in
some other thread. This has been observed for example on systems using
Samba NSS modules.
To avoid any other possible fallout, the constructor is split into a
new static library that needs to be linked explicitly into programs
using setproctitle(). As an additional safety measure the pkg-config
linker flags will mark the program as not allowing to be dlopen()ed
so that we avoid the problem described above.

Taken from NetBSD.
[guillem@hadrons.org:
- Import from NetBSD instead of FreeBSD to get a 3-clause BSD license,
instead of a 4-clause one.
- Define compatibility macros.
- Change library from libc to libbsd and header in man page.
- Add copyright information to COPYING.
- Add symbol to map file. ]
