Add static/const keywords to the arrays.

This theoretically allows a compiler to optimize (parts of) the array
away if unused.

While there, make the array size implicit and use a _Static_assert() to
ensure that the definition matches up with the number of elements in the

should be used from now on for anything security but not auth-related.
Included are updates for all relevant manpages and also to /etc files,
creating a new /var/log/security. Nothing in the system logs to

Added macros __printflike() and __scanflike() to <sys/cdefs.h>.
Use them to `make gcc -Wformat' check formats for all printf-like
and scanf-like functions in /usr/src except for the err()/warn()
family. err() isn't quite printf-like since its format arg can
legitimately be NULL. syslog() isn't quite printf-like, but gcc
already accepts %m, even for plain printf() when it shouldn't.

Since i've just touched <sys/syslog.h>, thereby causing a large part
of the system to be rebuilt anyway, this is a good time to introduce
LOG_NTP.

The reasoning for a separate facility is that xntpd can sometimes
cause exaggerative log message at high prioritites which are,
depending on your environment and available clock sources, not
necessarily as important as other LOG_DAEMON messages. However, they
used to clutter log files and system console in the existing setup.
Note that this situation could not be resolved using the !xntpd option
(think about it).

xntpd(8) is supposed to automatically pick up the change, it had
already all necessary #ifdef's.

The chosen value does, as far as my inquiries yielded, not clash with
any other operating system.

Add backward compatibility so that static executables built on
modern FreeBSD systems will syslog properly on older systems that
still name the logging socket "/dev/log". This includes pre-2.2
versions of FreeBSD as well as BSD/OS systems. If the connect to
"/var/run/log" fails, the function now tries to connect to
"/dev/log" as a fallback.
