Subject:   * doc/runscripts.html: typo; openssh needs absolute path (thx Kevin
 Berry);     exec into dhcpcd.   * uidgid.c, uidgid.h, chpst.c: support
 colon-separated list of groups.   * sv.c: utilize optional ./check script in
 service directory to check for     availablity of service.   * runsv.c:
 wait_pid() might be interupted.   * man/chpst.8, man/sv.8: adapt.
