 .SH BUGS
+The macro
+.BR STAILQ_FOREACH ()
+doesn't allow
+.I var
+to be removed or freed within the loop,
+as it would interfere with the traversal.
+The macro
+.BR STAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE (),
+which is present on the BSDs but is not present in glibc,
+fixes this limitation by allowing
+.I var
+to safely be removed from the list and freed from within the loop
+without interfering with the traversal.
