OpenBSD 4.6 src lib/libc/stdlib/setenv.c 1.10

bash_aliases: Increase robustness of sed_rm_ccomments()
Thanks to perl(1), we can use a non-greedy match to remove several
C89-style comments in the same line. And by splitting (and slightly
modifying) the other sed(1) call, we can handle multi-line comments that
start in the same line that the previous one ends.
Now the only remaining issue is nested comments, but that's rare, so
let's ignore it for now.
$ cat com.c
/* let's see */ int foo/*how about here?*/; // meh
int bar; /* Let's see

*.mk: Handle pathnames with ':'
Since make(1) uses ':' as a special character in rules, it needs to be
handled carefully. A way to make it work is to escape it with '\:'. We
can use sed(1) to do that right when we get the pathnames. The only
problem with ':' is in rules' targets and prerequisites: everywhere else
it's fine; so let's discuss what needs to be done in those places:
- In the targets, it's as easy as escaping.
- In prerequisites, we can't second-expand variables containing such
pathnames, as the '\' would not be used by make(1) to escape the ':',
but it would be interpreted as part of the pathname. This means we
need to expand rules written using second expansion into several
rules that only expand their variables once.
- $(wildcard ...) also performs the escape, so after using it the
pathnames are not escaped. If we used those variables in targets, we
would need to escape the ':'s again, but since we don't we can skip
that. The trick to make this work is to second-expand these
variables.

*.mk: Use empty recipes for .PHONY targets
The @: dummy recipe was there to avoid having rules without recipes.
Rules without recipes can be confusing, as the reader can't know if a
recipe is being defined somewhere else. Also, implicit rules might
apply (in general, but we disable all implicit stuff).
However, @: is also problematic, since make really needs to run that
command, which is unnecessary overhead. But okay, :(1) (really called
true(1), but wouldn't it be a nice man page name?) that's not meaningful
overhead.
And the bigger problem: having a recipe hides the usual:
make: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
We already disable it by using .SILENCE:, but the message can be seen
when using V=1 (after this patch; prior to this patch, it was impossible
to find that message). It is good to be able to know that make(1)
says there's nothing to be done, as a confirmation.

*/mk: mkdir -p (and install -d) are safe to use
There are no race conditions, contrary to what some sources say.
Previously, we had each directory depend on its parent directory, so
that only a few parent-most directories would be created with parents,
and all others would be created when their parents exist. That was due
to FUD about TOCTOU race conditions with mkdir -p and parallel make, but
it was just FUD.
This patch makes it so that each directory is directly created with
parents without specifying any dependency. This simplifies the makefile
at some cost: calling mkdir -p so many times is a bit slower. However,
it's only about 5%, so we can live with it, since we're talking about
hundreds of a second for creating all the directories that this build
system knows about.

This section reads like it were (and pretty much is) lifted from POSIX.

Instead, synopsise it into something less formal but more reasonable,
and describe the resulting range with a range instead of a paragraph.

Absolute soup. This reads to me like an ill-conceived copy from a very
early standard version. It looks fine in source form but is horrific to
read as running text.
Instead, replace all of these with just the descriptions of what they do
with their arguments. What the arguments are is very clearly noted in
