Fix the following Clang "LeakSanitizer" error (which isn't quite
relevant in this test program, but anyway):
ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks
Direct leak of 7 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

C99 states that vsnprintf() "returns the number of characters that
would have been printed if the n were unlimited"; but according to the
Linux manual page "glibc until 2.0.6 would return -1 when the output
was truncated" -- so we have to handle both cases ...
Test functions snprintf(), strlcpy(), strlcat(), vsnprintf() for
correctness, not only existance (which was quite useless, because
if they weren't available, the program could not have been linked
at all ...).
Don't abort on "single user operating systems" that don't know more than
one user account and therefore can't change user and group IDs.
Currently, the only such system supported by ngIRCd is Haiku, a BeOS
clone.
Starting with GNU automake 1.12, the "de-ANSI-fication support" has been
removed, which ngIRCd used to enable building itself on very old systems.
Now the problem is, that using automake >= 1.12 isn't working because of
the now unsupported M4 macros. Therefore the solution that this patch
implements is to dynamically generate the automake input files with our
own ./autogen.sh script:
configure.ng => configure.in
Makefile.ng => Makefile.am
This is quite an ugly approach, but it works and enables us to:
1. use current automake >= 1.12 for development and "private builds",
2. still build distribution archives using automake 1.11.x that have
"de-ANSI-fication support" enabled in the generated Makefile's.
And if you are using Makefile's generated with a automake version newer
than 1.11.x (without "de-ANSI-fication support"), the ./configure script
warns you not to use this generated build system to generate distribution
archives.
Drawback of this patch: you MUST use our autogen.sh script, you can't call
the autoconf/automake commands directly any more; but autoreconf should
still work ...
If gai_strerror() isn't available, use a macro that simply returns
a static error message (regardless of the real error code).
For example, GNU libc 2.0.7 doesn't implement gai_strerror().
The following bits and bytes were not included in distribution archives:
- contrib: ngindent, ngircd.sh
- contrib/Debian: ngircd.postinst
- contrib/MacOSX: preinstall.sh, postinstall.sh
- doc/src: Doxyfile, header.inc.html, footer.inc.html, ngircd-doc.css
- src/portab: splint.h

"I wanted to let you know that I've done a quick port of ngircd-0.12.0 for
NEXTSTEP3.3/OPENSTEP4.2. There wasn't a lot of changes required to get it
to compile clean, but I did make the necessary changes so that I didn't
have to use -posix flag. The NeXT has a pretty buggy POSIX implementation
so I always try to work around it. :-)
Anway, here's the changes required to get it to compile."
This patch does significant cleanup on the join code by using strtok_r
instead of mangling strchr to parse channel names and keys in parallel when
a JOIN command contains a list of channels and keys.
Also adds an strtok_r implementation to libportab.
- Make sure that strlcpy() returns the right value when the bufsize is 0.
- Fixed a bug in strlcat() where it would not properly detect a no-change
condition if called with an initial string longer than the specified
size limit (due to an unsigned var's inability to go negative).
