I didn't actually vet all the text changes. But assuming no typos, etc.
this looks good to me.
wrt NOTES, originally it was included as a README-like file because the
concept of feature test macros was new and unfamiliar and so it was a
significant thing to mention for using libc. Nowadays I don't think there
is a particular need to call attention to it any more than the rest of the
documentation. So I think it would be fine to drop the file.
Thanks,
Roland
