Document WAIT_ANY and WAIT_MYPGRP constants
(text referenced from OpenBSD wait(2) man page)

While there, remove duplicated information and add more refernces in SEE ALSO
Also, the NOTES section refers to intro(2), while siginterrupt(3) is a better
suited reference, so fix that too.

Move UCB-licensed code from 4-clause to 3-clause licence.

Patches provided by Joel Baker in PR 22280, verified by myself.


# 1.23 16-Apr-2003 wiz

Use
.In header.h
instead of
.Fd #include \*[Lt]header.h\*[Gt]
Much easier to read and write, and supported by groff for ages.
Okayed by ross.

Drop trailing whitespace.


# 1.20 12-Nov-2002 manu

Explain how WIF* macros use the status value instead of the pointer to the status value as wait() does. We use the name 'status' both as the argument to wait() and WIF* macros, this is misleading.


# 1.19 01-Oct-2002 wiz

Sort sections, sort SEE ALSO, punctuation and miscellanous fixes.


# 1.15 16-Sep-2001 wiz

Boring whitespace fixes.

Add a LIBRARY section to system call manual pages. While it's clear that the
libraries contain stubs only (with minor exceptions a la pipe(2)), the purpose
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!


# 1.10 29-Aug-1998 lukem

first pass at fixing up capitalization of function names and
arguments; ensure that each is correct with respect to the
implementation, rather than being correct as per english.

# 1.5 10-Jan-1994 jtc

Fix spelling errors.


# 1.4 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.


# 1.3 05-Oct-1993 jtc
