Merge fresh head.

Add a comment about why aout support is still here: We need it for
compat2x, which is still in use, as evidence by recent bug reports.

IFH@204581

Merge from head at r201628.

# This hasn't been tested, and there are at least three bad commits
# that need to be backed out before the branch will be stable again.

ANSIfy ldconfig and the aout bits it still uses from rtld-aout.

(Why is aout support still there?)

Sync program's usage() with manpage's SYNOPSIS.

Improve readability for the recently introduced changes by having
their sizeof(*p) instead of explicitlly specifying their types.

Use a better name than underscore-tmpfile for better representation

64-bit clean + WARNS=6:

64-bit clean + WARNS=6:
- Convert the (char *) cast+cast backs magic to
memcpy(3). Without this, the resulting code
is potentially risky with higher optimization
levels.
- Avoid same name when calling local variables,
as well as global symbols. This reduces
confusion for both human and compiler.
- Add necessary casts, consts
- Use new style function defination.
- Minor style.Makefile(5) tweak
- Bump WARNS?= from 0 to 6

** for the aout code: changes are intentionally limited
to ease maintaince.

Initiate deorbit burn for the i386-only a.out related support. Moves are
under way to move the remnants of the a.out toolchain to ports. As the
comment in src/Makefile said, this stuff is deprecated and one should not
expect this to remain beyond 4.0-REL. It has already lasted WAY beyond
that.

Notable exceptions:
gcc - I have not touched the a.out generation stuff there.
ldd/ldconfig - still have some code to interface with a.out rtld.
old as/ld/etc - I have not removed these yet, pending their move to ports.
some includes - necessary for ldd/ldconfig for now.

Tested on: i386 (extensively), alpha

This change is motivated by Binutils 2.11.0 and too much clashing over

If a directory is world-writable or is not owned by root, skip it
and emit a warning. This is a security measure since ldconfig
influences the shared libraries used by all programs.

I think the check should be made even more stringent by also
ignoring group-writable directories. I will make that change soon
unless we encounter a good reason not to do it.
