# 244568 21-Dec-2012 delphij

- Reduce buffer size from LINE_MAX to PATH_MAX, there is no point to store
path longer than this.
- Fix an unreached case of check against sizeof buf, which in turn leads
to an off-by-one nul byte write on the stack. The original condition
can never be satisfied because the passed boundary is the maximum value
that can be returned, so code was harmless.

# 114443 01-May-2003 nectar

Back out the `hiding' of strlcpy and strlcat. Several people
vocally objected to this safety belt.


# 114256 29-Apr-2003 nectar

`Hide' strlcpy and strlcat (using the namespace.h / __weak_reference
technique) so that we don't wind up calling into an application's
version if the application defines them.

Inspired by: qpopper's interfering and buggy version of strlcpy


# 106065 28-Oct-2002 wollman

Create a small library function, check_utility_compat(3), to determine
whether a named utility should behave in FreeBSD 4.x-compatible mode
or in a standard mode (default standard). The configuration is done
malloc(3)-style, with either an environment variable or a symlink.

Update expr(1) to use this new interface.
