/* Both OSF/1 and SYSVR4 man pages specify that brk(2) returns int.
 * However, BSD4.3 specifies that brk() returns char*.  POSIX omits
 * brk() on the grounds that it imposes a memory model on an architecture.
 * For this reason, brk() and sbrk() are not in the lib/posix directory.
 * On the other hand, they are so crucial to correct operation of so many
 * parts of the system, that we have chosen to hide the name brk using _brk,
 * as with system calls.  In this way, if a user inadvertently defines a
 * procedure brk, MINIX may continue to work because the true call is _brk.
