2003-06-01Undo a misguided attempt to fix speling errors from long ago. UCBTodd C. Miller

2000-06-30warnx?/errx? paranoia (use "%s" not a bare string unless it is aTodd C. Miller
constant). These are not security holes but it is worth fixing them anyway both for robustness and so folks looking for examples in the tree are not misled into doing something potentially dangerous. Furthermore, it is a bad idea to assume that pathnames will not include '%' in them and that error routines don't return strings with '%' in them (especially in light of the possibility of locales).
