If a command or interface first appeared in PWB/UNIX, UNIX System III or
UNIX System V mention it. Only do so in manual pages with a
pre-existing HISTORY section.

Prompted by the comparison of System V and BSD commands and interfaces
in Sun's "System V Enhancements Overview" document.

Document the failure mode if size is too small and mention that
allocating space when buf is NULL is an extension more prominently.
Clarify that getwd() is deprecated and should not be used.
Mention EFAULT errno value for invalid (non-NULL) buf.

Document that getcwd() and realpath() are built on system calls that
have a different calling convention than the standard function...as seen
in kdump output.

Remove the advertising clause in the UCB license which Berkeley
rescinded 22 July 1999. Proofed by myself and Theo.

Various repairs, mostly to get rid of short lines.

- remove all trailing whitespace
* except when it is escaped with a `\' at the end of the line
- fix remaining .Nm usage as well
- this is from a patch I received from kwesterback@home.com, who has been
working on some scripts for fixing formatting errors in mdoc'd man pages

Ok, so there could be a cost/benefit debate with this commit, but since I have
the patch we might as well commit it...

After some constructive criticism from pjanzen@ and some e-mail tag:

- only use the .Dv NULL form when referring explicitly to a function
argument or return value
- otherwise, use these forms:
o non-null
o null-terminated (hyphenated form for predicate adjective)
o else, null terminated, or null terminate, whichever the case
o null pointer, null byte, null string, etc.
- may use NUL to refer to an ASCII NUL, but it doesn't need a .Tn macro

In general, capitalizing the word "null" everywhere is unnecessary and makes
the man pages harder to read. The above is consistent with popular programming
texts (i.e., K&R, Stevens).
