[PATCH] POSIX extended API set 2, round 2



Hi

New version of the patch for POSIX extended API set 2:
http://ftp.espci.fr/shadow/manu/openat3.patch

I tried to address the previous remarks, except for the non standard
but more consistant system calls names. I beleive such stuff should
be a symbol alias with a warning if you do not build with _NETBSD_SOURCE
if we decide to do it.

I will work on man pages while people review that one.

What is still missing, but I think it should go in a separate commit:
- open(2) flags: O_EXEC, O_SEARCH, O_NOCTTY, O_RSYNC, O_TTY_INIT, 
  spec here: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/open.html
- fexecve(2) system call
