Yes all of these of course.  Most should be straight forward at this
point.  It takes some tedium to do.  An example to watch out for is the
sign status mechanism.  There are two different enumerators being used.
The original is embedded in the dtp structure. The other is unit_sign in
io.h. The unit_sign is the way to go, however, if it is not ordered
correctly, things break. (I will add that it took some time to figure
that out) Fixing this is on my list.

I plan to commit the patch after the following:

1) clean up ChangeLogs
2) Version the st_wait symbol
3) Cross test the libraries with 4.3

After the commit, I will start on the items identified by Tobias.

Thanks for review and test case examples.
