Michael Kerrisk 4cc127252b Add documentation of lutimes(), which appeared in glibc 2.6. 
Change description in NAME line ("or" is not correct: these calls
always change *both* timestamps).
futimes() did not come from 4.2BSD.  (It came from FreeBSD; see
the FreeBSD man page.)

Michael Kerrisk 063a2574dc tfix 2008-03-18 07:44:01 +00:00
Michael Kerrisk f32682858b setenv() copies 'name' and 'value' (contrat with putenv()). 
unsetenv() of a nonexistent variable does nothing and is considered successful.
Noted that setenv() and unsetenv() need not be reentrant.
 2008-03-17 12:06:58 +00:00
Michael Kerrisk 9f6d3345d8 Noted that caller must not modify returned value string. 
Noted that getenv() is not reentrant: the buffer may be statically
allocated and overwritten by later calls to getenv(), putenv(),
setenv(), or unsettenv().
Other minor rewrites.
