dholland | rename.2: clarify behavior of overlapping renames
It came up today that on case-insensitive filesystems, rename("FOO",
"foo") unlinks the file. That's obviously not what we want, so it's a
bug. In the course of the ensuing discussion it developed that the
description in the man page was at least vague and possibly vaguely
wrong. This commit fixes that.
Bump date.

dholland | Revert defective O_SEARCH implementation committed by manu@ along with
the *at system calls on November 18th of last year. Reasons to revert
it include:
- it is incorrect in a whole variety of ways (but fortunately, one
of them is that the missing and improper permission checks have
no net effect);
- it was committed without review or discussion;
- core ruled that all the new O_* flags pertaining to the *at calls
needed to wait until their semantics could be clarified.
manu was asked to revert it on these grounds but has ignored the request.
I have left O_SEARCH defined and visible and made open() explicitly
ignore it. This way, most code that tries to use it will continue to
build and run. I've also arranged lib/libc/c063/t_o_search.c so that
the tests that make use of the O_SEARCH semantics will disappear until
O_SEARCH comes back, and fixed some mistakes and/or incorrect hacks
that were causing some of these to succeed despite the broken O_SEARCH
implementation.

of this section is to provide linkage information.

Last of the .Os cleanups. .Os is defined in the tmac.doc-common file,
so we shouldn't override it with versions in the manpages. Wheee!

jtc | Remove description of EINVAL, "The pathname contains a character with the
high-order bit set", as this error is obsolete.
Eventually we may want to add code to some of the "optional" filesystems
(msdosfs, etc.) that checks for illegal characters. At that time it would
be appropriate to reintroduce this error with appropriate text. Perhaps
"The pathname contains a character that is not valid for filesystem type".

jtc | Use "Er" for argument to -width in the lists in the ERROR sections --- so
the formatting is consistant.
|
| 1.3 |
| 25-Nov-1993 |
jtc | Clean up manpages:
Use .Fn rather than .Nm macro in HISTORY and STANDARDS sections.
Use .At and .St macros instead of spelling out "Version 6 UNIX",
"IEEE 1003.1-1988 (POSIX)", etc.
