Hi all,

Changes:
* fixed ped_device_{open,close}, so they only change dev->open_count on
success
* fixed man page (thanks Timshel!)
* constified ped_file_system_type_get_next() (thanks msw!)
* fixed example 2 in doc/USER (section 2.5.2)
* changed msdos_write() (in libparted/disk_dos.c), to make the per-logical
container extended partition just wrap the contained logical partition
(and not extend to the end of the main extended partition)  Apparantly
this fixes problems with other partition programs.
* configure.in: CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -D_REENTRANT" - useful for threaded users
of libparted
* fixed buglet... the arbitary/safe/conservative number of 5 was chosen for
the number of heads to try when aligning logical partitions.  However, for
(virtual) disks with heads < 5, this causes wrap-around, causing recursive
partition tables.  Fortunately, heads < 5 is rare, except for using Parted
on files, or whatever.  s/5/PED_MIN (5, dev->heads)/ in disk_dos.c
* minor changes to doc/USER and doc/FAT
* changed int -> size_t for lots of stuff in parted/strlist.c
* moved -luuid out of LIB and into UUID_LIB, to prevent multiple ugly -luuid's
* added AC_ISC_POSIX to configure.in
* fixed typo in error message in configure.in ... libbuid -> libuuid
* AC_CHECK_HEADER -> AC_CHECK_HEADERS for -ltermcap
* libparted/fs_ext2/ext2_resize.c, type-cast to (void*) first arg to
ped_realloc()
