Just a question.

FreeBSD has singly-linked version of LIST, and call it SLIST.
What is a suitable name for it ?

        doubly linked   singly linked
                        FreeBSD         NetBSD
        --------------  --------------  -------------
        LIST            SLIST           ?
        TAILQ           STAILQ          SIMPLEQ
        CIRCLEQ         ? (*)           ?

        (*) may be SCIRCLEQ, if it is needed.
