This fixes the warning, and makes the binary smaller out of sheer pique.
(Yes, since Manuel did this one it's nice tight code that took several
attempts to shrink, but I was ticked.)
Add the start of a test for uniq; this is about the first 1/3 of the
tests we need for full susv3 coverage of uniq.
things down a bit, fixed a number of funky corner cases, added support for
several new features (things like mount --move, mount --bind, lazy unounts,
automatic detection of loop mounts, and so on). Probably broke several
other things, but it's fixable. (Bang on it, tell me what doesn't work for
you...)
Note: you no longer need to say "-o loop". It does that for you when
necessary.
Still need to add "user mount" support, which involves making mount suid. Not
too hard to do under the new infrastructure, just haven't done it yet...
The previous code had the following notes, that belong in the version
control comments:
- * 3/21/1999 Charles P. Wright <cpwright@cpwright.com>
- * searches through fstab when -a is passed
- * will try mounting stuff with all fses when passed -t auto
- *
- * 1999-04-17 Dave Cinege...Rewrote -t auto. Fixed ro mtab.

- * 1999-10-07 Erik Andersen <andersen@codepoet.org>.
- * Rewrite of a lot of code. Removed mtab usage (I plan on
- * putting it back as a compile-time option some time),
- * major adjustments to option parsing, and some serious
- * dieting all around.

- * 1999-11-06 mtab support is back - andersee

- * Rewrote fstab while loop and lower mount section. Can now do

would delete /home/file even if /tmp/file didn't exist.
This fixes that, although the logic of both mv and cp is a bit tangled and
should probably be untangled.

More to the point, this patch uses the same regex that sed.c is already using
(opportunity to suck in less library code), and even building a dynamically
linked busybox with just expr the result is a slightly smaller binary (by 94
bytes, I dunno what nm --size-sort has to say about it because I didn't build
with debug info, since that changes the binary size a lot by disabling
optimization...)
Your mileage may vary. Handle with caution. Do not taunt happy fun ball.

Comments from Vladimir Oleynik influenced the final patch, and I also ripped
out the in-file changelog since it belongs here. At the time, it said:
/* Apr 15, 2004 Matthew S. Wood (mwood@realmsys.com)
*
* Implement '-b' (backup) flag.
* Implement '-S' (backup suffix) flag.
*
*
* Mar 16, 2003 Manuel Novoa III (mjn3@codepoet.org)
*
* Fixed bug involving -n option. Essentially, -n was always in effect.
