Programmers often make the mistake of including a feature test
macro only after having already included some header files.
This patch adds some text at opportune places to remind
programmers to do things the right way.

Michael Kerrisk 60f4b757b2 insque.3: Noted prev == NULL bug in glibc 2.4 and earlier 
As noted by Remi Denis-Courmont, glibc nowadays allows
'prev' to be NULL, as required by POSIX for initializing
a linear list. But in glibc 2.4 and earlier, 'prev' could
not be NULL. Add a BUGS section noting this.

Michael Kerrisk 64fb5aedb0 tzfile.5: Add information on version 2 format timezone files 
Updated using information from the tzcode 2010l release at
ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub.
(It's an open question whether or not a version of tzfile.5
should live independently in man-pages. It was added to the
man-pages set many years ago. For now, I'll follow a
conservative course that causes least pain to downstream,
by continuing to maintain a separate copy in man-pages.)
