+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The

+function appends the NUL terminated string

+bytes.

+(including the terminating NUL). If the
+destination buffer is too small, or if

+bytes, the
+.BR libabort_stpacat ()
+function calls
+.BR abort (3).

+The
+.BR libabort_stpacat ()
+function returns a pointer to the terminating NUL byte of the
+resulting string.
+
+.SH ERRORS

+.BR libabort_stpacat ()
+function cannot fail.
+
+.SH HISTORY
+The
+.BR libabort_stpacat ()
