Change the behaviour of -F slightly; it now persists (forever) in
trying to open files rather than giving up when it encounters an
error. ENOENT errors are not reported.

As a result, files that are moved away then recreated are not at
risk of being 'lost' to tail. Files that are recreated and
temporarily have unreadable permissions will be shown when they
are fixed.

This behaviour is consistent with the GNU version of tail but
without the verbiage that goes with the GNU version.

This change also fixes error messages accompanying -f and -F.
They no longer report problems with (null)!

Added the EXIT STATUS section where appropriate.

Mechanically kill hard sentence breaks.

Note that this appeared at least as early as PWB UNIX.

Use the literal string 'PWB UNIX', as we still have no .At macro for it.

mdoc(7) police: utilize the new .Ex macro.

mdoc(7) police: removed HISTORY info from the .Os call.

mdoc(7) police: use the new features of the Nm macro.

Add DIAGNOSTICS section name

$Id$ -> $FreeBSD$

Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

.\" $Id$
.\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

Add a new -F flag which is a superset of -f. It will cause tail to
stat() the file being followed and do a close/reopen if the file has been
renamed and/or rotated. This is damn useful for leaving running on files
in /var/log when newsyslog(8) rotates them.

Remove trailing \n in warn() string.
