Matthew Kenigsberg df7271bb32 exec.3: Explain function groupings
I've found the exec man page quite difficult to read when trying
to find the behavior for a specific function. Since the names of
the functions are inline and the order of the descriptions isn't
clear, it's hard to find which paragraphs apply to each function.
I thought it would be much easier to read if the grouping based on
letters is stated.

Michael Kerrisk 0e1ad2f01a ld.so.8: Note some further details of secure-execution mode
Note some further details of the treatment of environment
variables in secure execution mode. In particular (as noted by
Matthias Hertel), note that ignored environment variables are also
stripped from the environment. Furthermore, there are some other
variables, not used by the dynamic linker itself, that are also
treated in this way (see the glibc source file
sysdeps/generic/unsecvars.h).
