understand why it can become a null pointer under some circumstances,
but i've got a pile of tapes where this happens, and running it thru a
debugger proved that simply ending the loop in this case did the right
thing.
Anyway, it cannot make it worse than now, where restore kills itself
with "Memory fault".
/dev/rfoo0d.
Scan a list of devices instead of insisting on all the world
being wd0.
Allow for disk names to be specified (e.g. `sd0') instead of full
path names only.
Sync the man page with the reality.
b) Put in names and email addresses of people who have claimed
empty sections as their own.
c) Incorporated MIRROR.SITES as the first section in the appendix
titled "Obtaining FreeBSD". When adding, removing or otherwize
twiddling with the mirror site info, do it in mirrors.sgml!
d) A couple other odds and ends.
e) NOTE: You must update your your /usr/bin/sgmlfmt and /usr/share/sgml
to process this edition of the handbook!
4k to 8k. This has a significant effect on the pipe performance. In
the future it might be good to increase this to 16k. PIPSIZ is now
tunable for experimentation.
syntax is slightly changed: -format is now -f format.
New option: -i name
This is a switch to control marked sections in SGML documents. Useful
for multi-lingual documents.
the installation floppy (and in any references in new user docs for
editing files) since tossing a novice into vi with no help or clue as
to what the key bindings are is both cruel and in violation of the
Hague Convention. It's also much SMALLER than vi and even supports emacs
key bindings for those so inclined.

Remove useless comments saying that SYSINIT() does system initialization.

Remove nearly useless comment that gave wrong pseudo-prototypes.
the file is fetched or not. Apparently Jordan fixed it a long time
ago but it was broken again at import of the new version of ncftp.
Which means even if we fix it, it may break again and we may need to
fix it again, and (imagination here, please)....
Instead, move the file existence check into the for loop for
MASTER_SITES/PATCH_SITES and break out with "continue 2" when the file
is found. This is actually a cleaner logic than before if you ask me,
because instead of assuming the file is fetched on a 0 exit status
from ncftp AND checking for the existence of the file after the loop,
the check is done exactly once for each iteration and nowhere else.
do-extract target depending on defined(EXTRACT_ONLY) or not, simply
set EXTRACT_ONLY ?= ${DISTFILES} and always use ${EXTRACT_ONLY} as
the extraction list.
