User-visible TCP timers are now expressed in units of 1ms, instead
of 500ms, so if you've customized any timer values under
``net.inet.tcp'', multiply them by 500 to preserve TCP's behavior.

On 28-May-1999 libreadline was upgraded from readline-2.2 to
readline-4.0. At that time the shared library major version
number was bumped from "3" to "4". It has been deemed that
the interface change between readline-2.2 and readline-4.0 was
not suffient to warrant the version number bump.
Thus I have reverted it back to "3". You will need to perform
the below immediately before your next ``make world'':
cd /usr/lib
ls -l libreadline.so.4
(if you have /usr/lib/libreadline.so.4)
mv libreadline.so.4 libreadline.so.3
rm -f libreadline.so
ln -s libreadline.so.3 libreadline.so

Changes to the pccardd kernel interface require that you recompile
pccardd for new kernel.
