In msdosfs_sync: spelling fix, formatting changes; fix MNT_LAZY (sync
modified denodes, don't sync device)

Increase limit for maximum disk size: as far as I can see previous limit was
gratuitously too low.
for the process, not a separate set for each thread). By default, the
process now only has signal handlers installed for SIGVTALRM, SIGINFO
and SIGCHLD. The thread kernel signal handler is installed for other
signals on demand. This means that SIG_IGN and SIG_DFL processing is now
left to the kernel, not the thread kernel.
Change the signal dispatch to no longer use a signal thread, and
call the signal handler using the stack of the thread that has the
signal pending.
Change the atomic lock method to use test-and-set asm code with
a yield if blocked. This introduces separate locks for each type
of object instead of blocking signals to prevent a context
switch. It was this blocking of signals that caused the performance
degradation the people have noted.
This is a *big* change!
deallocation cycles. This should provide a measurable improvement
on swap and memory allocation on loaded systems. It is unlikely a
complete solution. Also, provide more map info with procfs.
Chuck Cranor spurred on this improvement.

its use, but only breaks properly in some contexts.
Fixed the usual style bugs for DPADD and LDADD (disorder, and += for the
initial assignment).
`make world' by about 14% here (down to 4490 seconds real on a
K6/233). Temporarily skip this optimization when building with
-j, since there are still many broken makefiles.
Fixed NOCLEANDIR option. Cleaning of `.depend' was broken.
Put -nostdinc in CFLAGS, not in CC, and don't override the default
CC. This fixes enforcing use of ${WORLDTMP}/usr/include.
Don't install library man pages in ${WORLDTMP}.

Note that usage() and the manpage disagree...

to free the suffix. I think, it is a very strange idea. (Or, maybe, it is a
POSIX requirement?) And it is done incorrectly. Apparently, it even don't
update the list of known suffixes (but it is an other bug).

against the "master map" to get the list of mount point/amd map
correspondences, and using that list as command-line arguments to start
amd.
When I tried to do this with the existing /etc/rc* scripts, I found that
I couldn't do this by modifying only /etc/rc.conf: that file gets
sourced very early by /etc/rc, well before any networking functionality
is present, let alone NIS. Further, I wasn't able to figure out a way
to use various levels & types of quoting to defer evaluation of the
string to a point subsequent to NIS initialization.
As a result, I resorted to hacking /etc/rc.network -- but I did it in a
way that ought to be reasonably general, and avoid breakage for anyone
else.

Note odd `sigmask()' line in synopsis. `sigsetops(3)' is better suited
for `sigprocmask' and is already referenced from the manual page.
