/* NAME
/*	split_nameval 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	name-value splitter
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <split_nameval.h>
/*
/*	const char *split_nameval(buf, name, value)
/*	char	*buf;
/*	char	**name;
/*	char	**value;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	split_nameval() takes a logical line from readlline() and expects
/*	text of the form "name = value" or "name =". The buffer
/*	argument is broken up into name and value substrings.
/*
/*	Arguments:
/* .IP buf
/*	Result from readlline() or equivalent. The buffer is modified.
/* .IP name
/*	Upon successful completion, this is set to the name
/*	substring.
/* .IP value
/*	Upon successful completion, this is set to the value
/*	substring.
/* FEATURES
/* SEE ALSO
/*	dict(3) mid-level dictionary routines
/* BUGS
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	Fatal errors: out of memory.
/*
/*	The result is a null pointer in case of success, a string
/*	describing the error otherwise: missing '=' after attribute
/*	name; missing attribute name.
