Hats off to Earl Chew for the new stdio. I am not particularly attached to
the current one (Patrick van Kleef's), so if this one is the best
available package, I'll use it. As people use it, please post results.

One question: presumably one removes all library routines named the same
as Earl's routines, but are their any other routines that must be removed
from the library?

Remove anything that has something to do with stdio. Look through the new stdio.h for all the functions that are affected. In the patches posted I have provided new exit.c and atexit.c files. These are replacements for the current versions of these files. NOTE: _exit() must be split from exit(). So if you have _exit() and exit() in the one file (presumably you have it in a file named exit.c) split it into _exit.c and exit.c. _exit.c remains and exit.c gets clobbered by the one provided in stdio.
