dist, while release.3 makes and installs crypto, krb4, and krb5
dists.  This makes release.3 restartable (with "make rerelease").

3626f83327 Update the default newfs block and fragment sizes from 8192/1024 to 
16384/2048.

Following recent discussions on the -arch mailing list, involving dillon
and mckusick, this change parallels the one made over a decade ago when
the default was bumped up from 4096/512.

This should provide significant performance improvements for most
folks, less significant performance losses for a few folks and
wasted space lost to large fragments for many folks.

For discussion, please see the following thread in the -arch archive:

Subject: Using a larger block size on large filesystems

schemes is raised.

  is part of 1003.1 since 1003.1-1996.

- changed abbreviation of -isoC from ``ISO C'' to ``ISO C89''
- removed -iso9899 alias for -isoC
