Revert r184509: don't encourage the use of sysexits.h with err() and
errx(),, as there seems to be a general preference against this
practice.

if ((four = malloc(sizeof(struct foo))) == NULL)
- err(EX_OSERR, NULL);
+ err(1, (char *)NULL);
if ((six = (int *)overflow()) == NULL)
- errx(EX_DATAERR, "number overflowed");

Out of curiosity, why not EXIT_FAILURE instead of 1, at least in
situations where including stdlib.h is allowed? Is it because
EXIT_FAILURE is only required to be non-zero and not necessarily 1?
