Bring in an initial version of setproctitle().. This is intended to
replace the dozen other various hacks in the code that do all sorts of crude things including spamming the envrionment strings with the new argv string. This version is mainly inspired by the sendmail version, with a couple of ideas taken from the NetBSD implementation as well.

+.Dt SETPROCTITLE 3
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm setproctitle
+.Nd set the process title for
+.Xr ps 1
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Ft void
+.Fn setproctitle "const char *fmt" "..."
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm setproctitle
+library routine sets the process title that appears on the
+.Xr ps 1
+command.
+.Pp
+The title is set from the executable's name, followed by the
+result of a
+.Xr printf 3
+style expansion of the arguments as specified by the
+.Va fmt
+argument.
+.Pp
+If
+.Va fmt
+is NULL, the process title is reset to simply the name of the executable.
+.\" The following requests should be uncommented and used where appropriate.
+.\" This next request is for sections 2 and 3 function return values only.
+.\" .Sh RETURN VALUES
+.\" This next request is for sections 1, 6, 7 & 8 only
+.\" .Sh ENVIRONMENT
+.\" .Sh FILES
+.Sh EXAMPLES
+To set the title on a daemon to indicate it's activity:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+setproctitle("talking to %s", inet_ntoa(addr));
+.Ed
+.\" This next request is for sections 1, 6, 7 & 8 only
+.\" (command return values (to shell) and fprintf/stderr type diagnostics)
+.\" .Sh DIAGNOSTICS
+.\" The next request is for sections 2 and 3 error and signal handling only.
+.\" .Sh ERRORS
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr ps 1 ,
+.Xr w 1 ,
+.Xr kvm 3 ,
+.Xr kvm_getargv 3 ,
+.Xr printf 3
+.Sh STANDARDS
+.Nm setproctitle
+is implicitly non-standard. Other methods of causing the
+.Xr ps 1
+command line to change, including copying over the argv[0] string are
+also implicitly non-portable. It is preferable to use an operating system
+supplied
+.Nm setproctitle
+if present.
+.Pp
+Unfortunately, it is possible that there are other calling conventions
+to other versions of
+.Nm setproctitle ,
+although none have been found by the author as yet. This is believed to be
+the predominant convention.
+.Pp
+It is thought that the implementation is compatable with other systems,
+including
+.Nm NetBSD
+and
+.Nm BSD/OS .
+.Sh HISTORY
+.Nm setproctitle
+first appeared in FreeBSD at version 2.2. Other operating systems have
+similar functions.
+.Sh AUTHORS
+.Nm Peter Wemm <peter@FreeBSD.org>
+stole the idea from the
+.Nm Sendmail 8.7.3
+source code by
+.Nm Eric Allman <eric@sendmail.org> .
