printf.3: Remove libc4 and libc5 details
...
Rich Felker noted that "scare text" in the man page warned about
the use of snprintf() on libc, and that some people had cited
this as a reason not to use snprintf(). Linux libc is now
ancient history, so there is no real need to keep that text.
But, while we're at it, we may as well clear out all of the
other ancient libc4 and libc5 pieces in the page. They are
nowadays more clutter than help.

printf.3: Correctly describe the meaning of a negative precision
...
The printf(3) manpage says that a negative precision is taken to
be zero, whereas printf(3p) says that a negative precision is
taken as if the precision were omitted. glibc agrees with the
latter (POSIX) specification.
Test code:
printf("%f\n",42.0); // "42.000000"
printf("%.*f\n",0,42.0); // "42"
printf("%.*f\n",-1,42.0); // "42.000000"
This patch corrects the explanation to match what actually happens.

printf.3: Source and destination buffers may not overlap for *s*printf()
...
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7075
Some existing code relies on techniques like the following to
append text to a buffer:
$ cat s.c
#include <stdio.h>
char buf[80] = "not ";
main()
{
sprintf(buf, "%sfail", buf);
puts(buf);
return 0;
}
$ cc s.c
$ ./a.out
not fail
However, the standards say the results are undefined if source
and destination buffers overlap, and with suitable compiler
options, recent changes can cause unexpected results:
$ cc -v 2>&1 | grep gcc
gcc version 4.3.1 20080507 (prerelease) [gcc-4_3-branch revision 135036] (SUSE Linux)
$ cc -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE -O2 s.c
$ ./a.out
fail

Global change to many pages...
...
Various pages use inconsistent terms for 'null byte' (which
is the C99/SUSv3 term for the '\0' character).
To rectify this the following changes were made in these pages:
Replace 'zero byte' with 'null byte'.
Replace 'null character' with 'null byte'.
Replace 'nulls' with 'null bytes'.
Replace 'NUL-terminated' by 'null-terminated'.
Replace 'NUL' by 'null byte'.
Replace 'terminating NUL' by 'terminating null byte'.
Replace 'final NUL' by 'terminating null byte'.
Replace 'NUL character' by 'null byte'.

Hello Joey,
...
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=205736
[[
This example contains the following line:
if ((p = realloc (p, size)) == NULL)
return NULL;
This is a very ill written code, since realloc returning
NULL do not deallocate the original memory block. Such a
statement has a potential to become significant memory
hole. I suggest to correct this example since:
1. It may trick naive programmers to write bad code
2. It may lead skeptic observers to the believe
the whole Linux is written in a similar style.
Regards Jan Kuznik
]]
This guy is right on the money!
I've changed that example, so that the above code has been replaced by:
char *np;
...
if ((np = realloc (p, size)) == NULL) {
free(p);
return NULL;
} else {
p = np;
}
Cheers,
Michael
