nice, nohup, su: detect write failure to stderr2009-10-29T03:12:41ZEric Blakeebb9@byu.net2009-10-28T20:36:09Zurn:sha1:1c59bb3cefff73c532033863e60e9130892a50dd
These programs can print non-fatal diagnostics to stderr prior to
exec'ing a subsidiary program. However, if we thought the situation
warranted a diagnostic, we insist that the diagnostic be printed
without error, rather than blindly exec, as it may be a security risk.
For an example, try 'nice -n -1 nice 2>/dev/full'. Failure to raise
priority (by lowering niceness) is not fatal, but failure to inform
the user about failure to change priority is dangerous.

build: avoid compiler warnings on cygwin 1.52009-09-22T02:42:16ZEric Blakeebb9@byu.net2009-09-21T16:28:01Zurn:sha1:32f987af1274d3ed53244564ab537dce8e330e0a

doc: mention the texinfo documentation in --help2009-09-21T11:37:57ZPádraig BradyP@draigBrady.com2009-09-18T22:06:21Zurn:sha1:5d4f09d83a7c69110b4db97443759e9046c149e1
* src/system.h: Rename emit_bug_reporting_address() to
emit_ancillary_info() and update it to not print the translation
project address in en_* locales, and _do_ print it in the 'C'
(and other) locales so that it's included in the default man page.
Also mention how to invoke the texinfo documentation for each command.
Also move the "hard-locale.h" include to the 8 files that now use it.
* man/help2man: Strip the newly added texinfo reference from the
--help output as a more verbose version is already added by help2man.
Suggestion from C de-Avillez
