The GNU .init_array support is an extension over the standard System V
ABI .init_array support, which passes the main() arguments to the init
function.
This support comes in three parts. First the dynamic linker (from glibc)
needs to support it. Then function pointers need to be placed in the
section, for example by using __attribute__((constructor)), that the
compiler (gcc or clang for example) might place in section .ctors and
the linker (from binutils) will move to .init_array on the output
object, or by placing them directly into .init_array by the compiler
when compiling. If this does not happen and the function pointers end
up in .ctors, then they will not get passed the main() arguments, which
we do really need in this case.
But this relies on recent binutils or gcc having native .init_array
support, and not having it disabled through --disable-initfini-array.
To guarantee we get the correct behaviour, let's just place the function
pointer in the .init_array section directly, so we only require a recent
enough glibc.

The ChangeLog file is distributed, and cannot be regenerated outside
of the git repository, so do not remove it in DISTCLEANFILES, and move
the generation code into dist-hook, which also avoids unnecessary
computation during normal builds.
The code in getpeereid() is unlikely to compile as ucred_t is an opaque
struct (ucred_t * works but ucred_t does not). Either you need to give
a pointer initialized to NULL and getpeerucred() allocates a new ucred
or you call it with an allocated ucred as in this patch.

The function is a duplicate of expand_number(), but covering less
prefixes and with a slightly different function signature.

Make the 0.5 version the default, so that code wanting the actual
implemented version can get a proper versioned depdendency. For code
linked against the old version, make it available as an alias.
Use local getprogname()/setprogname() instead of reimplementing them
locally. Use clearenv() if available, not just on glibc. Use bool
instead of _Bool. Use paranthesis on sizeof. Fold the SPT_MIN macro
into spt_min(). Make spt_init() static. Avoid unnecessary gotos.

- 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. ]

This avoids buffer overwrites during concurrent or intermixed calls to
fgetln() when using more than one different stream (currently 32), which
the original interface supports natively by using an internal buffer
from the FILE structure. Although this workaround is rudimentary, it
should cover most of the theoretically problematic cases.
This centralizes the setting so there's no duplication anymore,
makes sure the user supplied variables are never overridden, and
are only set when using gcc.

This makes sure the install-exec-hook under src works as expected even
when no runtimelibdir was specified, otherwise the symlinks end up
pointing to non-existing targets.

This was assuming an installed <bsd/md5.h> on the system, due to the
build system not including -Iinclude/ anymore.
Regression introduced in commit 901ed630fc.
