Beyond changes to the build system, this includes fixing up the sample
freebsd.mc configuration for changes in defaults and syntax, removing
outdated documentation, and updating the release notes.
Make sysinstall override this on install, so the effective behavioural
change for a newly installed system is null. Overall, this makes a system
with an empty /etc/rc.conf not run any network services, and makes the
FreeBSD-provided network services that are running visible in /etc/rc.conf
(instead of making people look through /etc/defaults/rc.conf to find the
things they need to disable to secure the system.)

Now, if a release is specified, instead of just looking for a directory
with the same name as the release, try several possible directories (each
suffixed with the release name) relative to the base directory including

with "pub/FreeBSD/". This will allow us to remove the evil symlinks under
pub/FreeBSD/releases/MACHINE/ to the snapshots on the ftp site.

extra make options such as -jX to speed up release builds.

I'll add examples when I add the post-include mechanism, since the

Add the ability to put make instructions in crunch.inc to pass to the
build process.
Now explicitly make the objects in our own object tree, since we want to
build the objects with our own defines, and allow this to occur in a
common object tree for all PicoBSD builds, if required. This is
controlled by the COMM_OBJ variable, for those who don't want this -
setting it to /usr/obj again will just pick up the objects from your
last make buildworld, as before.

While I'm there:
1) Use kgzip, not kzip, since kzip certainly doesn't make bootable
kernels anymore. loader still isn't built separately, let alone without
forth support. This needs to be fixed.
2) Expand the mount/vnconfig examples to be the defacto way of making
sure the filesystems are mounted, unmounted, or not configured. This
needs more work.
3) quieten the build substantially, so errors are more prominent
4) Start of '-j' ability. Current style isn't quite in the correct
dependency format for this, but obvious mistakes (changing directories

IPv6 configuration is only done by rtsol. Does someone really
need manual configuration? :-)
You can specify IPv6 DNS server as well.
We have only one server ftp7.jp.freebsd.org that speaks IPv6

Japan #7.

controller chip. This chip is currently being used on the NetGear
FA312-TX adapter, which I guess is a replacement for the FA310-TX
(PNIC-based).
I added support for this chip by modifying the sis driver since
the SiS 900 and the NS DP83815 have almost the same programming
interface (the RX filter programming and PHY access methods are
different, but the general configuration, DMA scheme and register
layout are identical).
I would have had this done a lot sooner, but getting the damn MAC
address out of the EEPROM proved to be more complicated than expected.

This prevents the overwrite yes/no prompt from occuring in gzip.

Also, since usbd already handles USB mice automatically, note that the
