Fix performance bug on hosts with large /var/adm/wtmp files with no boot records. (boot_time_initialized): New var. (init_filelock): Initialize it. (get_boot_time): Use it, instead of nonzero boot_time, to test whether boot_time is initialized. Don't invoke utmp routines when dumping. (get_boot_time): First, try to get the boot time from the current utmp file, as this can be much faster. Don't try to get the boot time from utmp and/or wtmp more than once. (get_boot_time_1): When passed null pointer, don't invoke utmpname. New arg LATEST. All uses changed.

This directory contains the architecture-independent files used by or
with Emacs.  This includes some text files of documentation for GNU
Emacs or of interest to Emacs users, and the file of dumped docstrings
for Emacs functions and variables.

`termcap.src' is included mainly for VMS.  It is a copy of the
`/etc/termcap' file used on Unix.
