 Based on discussion with Pedro F. Giffuni (pfg%freebsd.org@localhost) and
 further with Ed Shouten (ed%freebsd.org@localhost), my suggestion to return NULL
 in that case was not correct.  A recent revision of POSIX prescribes
 to return "unspecified non-null pointer" in this case.  So just a
 reversal of revision 1.4 of tdelete.c was suggested.
