* Renumber copyright clause 4Warner Losh2017-02-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | When adding getline(3) and dprintf(3) into libc, those guards were added to prevent breaking too many ports. 7 years later the ports tree have been fixed, it is time to remove this FreeBSDism While here remove the extra parenthesis surrounding dprintf(3) Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=303524
