create stdin and stdout, don't blindly try to use stdin as a bi-directional
channel. Instead, detect the pipe and set up a special exec handler
that indirects write() calls through stdout.
This fixes the problem where ``set device "!ssh -e none host ppp
-direct label"'' no longer works with an openssh-5.2 server side as
that version of openssh ignores the USE_PIPES config setting and
*always* uses pipes (rather than socketpair) for stdin/stdout channels.

Add support for backing up the old kernel when installing a new kernel
using freebsd-update. This applies to using freebsd-update in "upgrade
mode" and normal freebsd-update on a security branch.
The backup kernel will be written to /boot/kernel.old, if the directory
does not exist, or the directory was created by freebsd-update in a
previous backup. Otherwise freebsd-update will generate a new directory
name for use by the backup. By default symbol files are not backed up
to save diskspace and avoid filling up the root partition.
This feature is fully configurable in the freebsd-update config file,
but defaults to enabled.

Prevent sysinstall from needlessly waiting for confirmation when using an USB
device in non-interactive mode.
If there are no USB devices, sysinstall gives an error messages, and if there
is >1, it'll ask which one is to be used. This change allows a non-interactive
install from USB media to succeed without any user interaction if there is
exactly one USB disk device in the system it can use.

via cpuctl(4) driver. Two new CPUCTL_MSRSBIT and CPUCTL_MSRCBIT ioctl(2)
calls treat the data field of the argument struct passed as a mask
and set/clear bits of the MSR register according to the mask value.
- Allow user to perform atomic bitwise AND and OR operaions on MSR registers
via cpucontrol(8) utility. Two new operations ("&=" and "|=") have been
added. The first one applies bitwise AND operaion between the current
contents of the MSR register and the mask, and the second performs bitwise
OR. The argument can be optionally prefixed with "~" inversion operator.
This allows one to mimic the "clear bit" behavior by using the command
like this:
cpucontrol -m 0x10&=~0x02 # clear the second bit of TSC MSR
Inversion operator support in all modes (assignment, OR, AND).
