3rd (variadic) mode_t parameter is irrelevant. Many developers in the past
have passed mode_t (0, 044, 0644, or such), which might lead future people
to copy this broken idiom, and perhaps even believe this parameter has some
meaning or implication or application. Delete them all.
This comes out of a conversation where tb@ noticed that a strange (but
intentional) pledge behaviour is to always knock-out high-bits from
mode_t on a number of system calls as a safety factor, and his bewilderment
that this appeared to be happening against valid modes (at least visually),
but no sorry, they are all irrelevant junk. They could all be 0xdeafbeef.

but additionally have a bootblock in the first 8K (since UFS does not use that
space). There are some UEFI direct-from-internet bootloaders that require
the name *.img. So this makes things more convenient for those, while keeping
it consistant in all architectures.

helps us in the future.

We strdup operands before destructively parsing them to keep w(1) output
looking nice and neat, but after parsing we ought to free them.
We do need to keep copies for file paths, though, so add additional strdups
for operands if and of.
While here, use the preferred err(1, NULL) for an allocation failure. Also
while here, don't assign `oper' to a copy of itself because it looks strange.

Large buffer sizes on 64-bit platforms cause the sum to wrap, leading
read(2) to fail later.
We check prior to this point that all buffer sizes are <= SSIZE_MAX.
SSIZE_MAX * 2 < SIZE_MAX on all platforms, so the addition here will
not overflow and cause a similar issue.
Discovered by tobias@ a while back.

Much simpler.
Dropping writev makes the output from summary() non-atomic, so
output lines triggered by SIGINFO can intermingle with output
lines triggered by SIGINT or atexit(3).
This behavior is difficult to trigger, even deliberately.
The buffer in dprintf is large enough so that lines produced by
summary() are not garbled if this occurs, though, so this is unlikely
to break any scripts.
Discussed at length with deraadt@, who helpfully noted that
"not all problems have perfect solutions."

possible. Annotate <sys/param.h> lines with their current reasons. Switch
to PATH_MAX, NGROUPS_MAX, HOST_NAME_MAX+1, LOGIN_NAME_MAX, etc. Change
MIN() and MAX() to local definitions of MINIMUM() and MAXIMUM() where
sensible to avoid pulling in the pollution. These are the files confirmed
through binary verification.

to stderr after transfer. Use the GNU syntax status=noxfer and
status=none to make dd quiet. The output is annoying in some
situations, so people redirect stderr to /dev/null. This approach
also suppresses the error messages and bugs in shell scripts remain
undetected. The new feature status=none is the better alternative.
