For Linux the maximum uid can vary depending on how your kernel
is built. The Linux kernel still can be compiled with 16 but uids
and gids, although I'm not aware of a major distribution which does
this (maybe an embedded one?). Given that caviot it is reasonably
safe to define the MAXUID as 2147483647.
Updated AUTHORS, COPYING, DISCLAIMER, and INSTALL files. Added
standardized headers to all source file to clearly indicate the
copyright, license, and to give credit where credit is due.
muck with #includes in existing Solaris style source to get it
to find the right stuff.
