getaddrinfo.3: Document results ordering and /etc/gai.conf
...
This patch documents the order of the getaddrinfo(3) results
(RFC 3484), how should the application deal with that,
mentions the extremely common cause of having multiple
results per query (both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses available)
and mentions /etc/gai.conf.
(mtk: Minor tweaks, and note glibc version for /etc/gai.conf)

It's a subtle point, but if a registered function itself
calls exit(3), then subsequent functions that were registered
with on_exit(3) will see the exit status given to the more

open.2: EFBIG error is now EOVERFLOW (since Linux 2.6.24)
...
When a 32-bit app opens a file whose size is too big to be
represented in 31-bits, POSIX.1 specifies the error EOVERFLOW.
Linux used to give EFBIG for this case, but 2.6.24 fixed this.
Also, add some text to describe the error scenario in
more detail.
