This is a bulk spelling fix patch against busybox-1.00-pre10.
If anyone gets a corrupted copy (and cares), let me know and
I will make alternate arrangements.
Erik - please apply.
Authors - please check that I didn't corrupt any meaning.
Package importers - see if any of these changes should be
passed to the upstream authors.
I glossed over lots of sloppy capitalizations, missing apostrophes,
mixed American/British spellings, and German-style compound words.
What is "pretect redefined for test" in cmdedit.c?
Good luck on the 1.00 release!

archive_xread can be replaced with bb_full_read, and archive_copy_file
with bb_copyfd*
bb_copyfd is split into two functions bb_copyfd_size and bb_copyfd_eof,
they share a common backend.
Need to chdir after the tar file is opened, so make common tar filename
parsing and send the file descriptor rather than filename to
writeTarFile.
Modify the verboseFlag operation to determine wether to display on
stderr or stdout at display time, simpler than doing it in tar_main.
bb-tar "cjf" does not create a valid tbz2-archive -- if fact the result is a
plain tar-file (no compression) -- but does not warn about the unrecognized
parameter combination "cj" (bb does not have bzip2-compression yet, right?).
to fix this I have added an error message stating this does not work.
He also reported
cosmetic: versose "-v" does not show any output when used with "create"
which I have now fixed as well.

He took a look into the recent reports of tar problems, and found an obvious
typo in last_patch91 from vodz which converted tar to use bb_getopt_ulflags.
It seems that under busybox unstable, "tar -c -f - blabla" create
a tar file named "-" instead of writing to stdout.
The included patch should fix this.
New complex patch for decrease size devel version. Requires previous patch.
Also removed small problems from dutmp and tar applets.
Also includes vodz' last_patch61_2:
Last patch correcting comment for #endif and more integrated
with libbb (very reduce size if used "cat" applet also).
Requires last_patch61 for modutils/config.in.
Hi, Erik.
my_getpw(uid/gid) and applets used it have problem:
if username for uid not found, applets can`t detect it
(but code pessent). Also "%8ld " format is bad:
spaces not required (applets have self format
or spec format (tar applet) and overflow for "id" applet...)
This problem also pressent in stable version.
Patch for unstable in attach.
