Global changes
--------------

-  CREDITS renamed to AUTHORS.

-  man/
   -  realloc(3): Clarify (non)conformance of realloc(p,0) in glibc.
   -  Don't use bold/italics for forward declarations of function
      parameters.  This differentiates them from actual parameters.
   -  fcntl(2) and futex(2) have been split into smaller spages that are
      easier to read, and also easier to maintain.


Changes to individual files
---------------------------

The manual pages and other files in the repository have been improved
beyond what this changelog covers.  To learn more about changes applied
