0bc62786ea Note: INSTALL=install -C is no longer supported. Use COPY=-C instead.
While the old way will continue to work for a while, it will cause
warnings until after 4.4, but before 4.5.

52bf24e769 Add a mild warning for people to expect problems in -current after the
SMPng merge.  Suggest 4.x-stable for a while for those people that are

lots of problems crop up in the coming weeks.
