Use a list for clarity, update standards, etc.


# 1.26 27-Jun-2011 wiz

Various minor improvements.


# 1.25 26-Jun-2011 christos

* Arrange for interfaces that create new file descriptors to be able to
set close-on-exec on creation (http://udrepper.livejournal.com/20407.html).

- Add F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC to fcntl(2).
- Add MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC to recvmsg(2) for unix file descriptor passing.
- Add dup3(2) syscall with a flags argument for O_CLOEXEC, O_NONBLOCK.
- Add pipe2(2) syscall with a flags argument for O_CLOEXEC, O_NONBLOCK.
- Add flags SOCK_CLOEXEC, SOCK_NONBLOCK to the socket type parameter
for socket(2) and socketpair(2).
- Add new paccept(2) syscall that takes an additional sigset_t to alter
the sigmask temporarily and a flags argument to set SOCK_CLOEXEC,
SOCK_NONBLOCK.
- Add new mode character 'e' to fopen(3) and popen(3) to open pipes
and file descriptors for close on exec.
- Add new kqueue1(2) syscall with a new flags argument to open the
kqueue file descriptor with O_CLOEXEC, O_NONBLOCK.

* Fix the system calls that take socklen_t arguments to actually do so.

* Don't include userland header files (signal.h) from system header files
(rump_syscallargs.h).

* Bump libc version for the new syscalls.

Comment out a paragraph describing behavior which NetBSD's fopen(3) does
not exhibit, per PR 6072.


# 1.10 15-Jan-2000 christos

add and "f" flag to fopen that makes sure we are opening a plain file,
so that there is no chance to block.
