Global changes
--------------
The terms "set-user-ID" and "set-group-ID" are now used consistently
(no abbreviations) across all manual pages.
Consistent use of "saved set-user-ID" and "saved set-group-ID"
(no more "saved user ID", "ved effective UID", saved group ID", etc.)
Classical BSD versions are now always named x.yBSD (formerly
there was a mix of x.yBSD and BSD x.y).
uid --> UID
gid --> GID
pid --> PID
id --> ID
Consistent use of st_atime, st_ctime, st_mtime, with explanatory text,
instead if atime/ctime/mtime.
Typographical or grammatical errors have been corrected in several
