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.

Petr Baudis 2419294d22 crypt.3: Correct note on key portion significance
As Marcel Moreaux notes:

    The Linux manpage for crypt()[1] contains the following
    statement as the last sentence of the NOTES section:

        In the SHA implementation the entire key is significant
        (instead of only the first 8 bytes in MD5).

    It should probably say "DES" where it says "MD5" (and maybe
    "MD5/SHA" where it says "SHA"), because in MD5 password hashing,
    the entire key is significant, not just the first 8 bytes.

This patch fixes the wording.

The RFC 822-compliant date format given in the description
of `%z' is now moved to the `EXAMPLES' section (note: `EXAMPLE'
has been renamed `EXAMPLES').

Furthermore, that format example is now actually
RFC 822-compliant (using `%y' instead of `%Y') and has been
qualified as being correct only when in the context of at least
an English locale. Also, `%T' is used in place of `%H:%M:%S'.

For completeness, an RFC 2822-compliant format example has been
similarly added.

Nicolas François 4b200bd5f8 pthread_attr_setstack.3: Minor fixes
* pthread_attr_setstacksize was cut&pasted.
* The stacksize argument can be compared to PTHREAD_STACK_MIN, not the
  stackaddr address.

Nicolas François 6316fce396 pthread_getcpuclockid.3: Minor fixes
Looking at the man page, this is not a family of functions.
So "returns" is right, "functions" should be "function".

The word "function" is missing (or "The" should be removed?).

Michael Kerrisk 6b34fb3f5a execve.2, pipe.2, tee.2, fmemopen.3, mq_notify.3, qsort.3: Replace use of assert() by code that checks argc
See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13569

As noted by Andrey:
The purpose of the assert macro, defined in <assert.h>,
is to provide a tool to check for programming mistakes
or program logic errors. However, the assert macro must
never be used to perform checks for run time errors,
since, with the NDEBUG macro defined, expressions within
the assert macro invocations are not evaluated/checked
for, resulting in behavior that was not originally intended.
...
The pages affected in the core package are

execve(2)
pipe(2)
tee(2)
fmemopen(3)
mq_notify(3)
qsort(3)

Michael Kerrisk f9d5775ff8 getaddrinfo.3: Note nonstandard assumed hints.ai_flags value when hints is NULL
When hints is NULL, glibc assumes hints.ai_flags is
AI_V4MAPPED|AI_ADDRCONFIG whereas POSIX says 0.
According to Ulrich Drepper, glibc's behavior is better.
