fcntl.2, intro.2, open.2, poll.2, ftw.3, intro.3, matherr.3, system.3, tmpnam.3, unix.7: Note that feature test macros must be defined before *any* includes
...
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.

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.

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.)
