ec9b318eaf Change time_t from a 32-bit value to a 64-bit value, on FreeBSD/sparc64
only.  This is a  MAJOR  incompatible change for the sparc64 platform,
but will not effect FreeBSD on other architectures.

Reviewed by:	imp for UPDATING, freebsd-sparc for the change itself.

3f631d528c Add the most vital piece of information WRT upgrading past the
statfs changes: you must have COMPAT_FREEBSD4 in your kernel
config file. Everything else is documented procedure and will
not save your ass if you don't have the option.

9bf40ede4a Replace the if_name and if_unit members of struct ifnet with new members
if_xname, if_dname, and if_dunit. if_xname is the name of the interface
and if_dname/unit are the driver name and instance.

This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo
device creation and configuration symantics.

a26df538d2 Document a workaround for getting past the groff infinite loop problem
when your userland is older tahn your kernel and Makefile.inc1 therefore
thinks that you don't need to rebuild groff, when in fact you do.  This
workaround is to set OSRELDATE to 500110 before building, but only if you
have a new enough Makefile.inc1.

I've confirmed this on my laptop, which was suffering from this problem.
Since it only hits power users, we'll naively assume that such users are
smart enough to read UPDATING.
