Note that this code is dormant unless the options files exist.
Also, parsing of quoted options in the config files is improved.
What this allows, is all the options in LINT to be specified to be
configured as #defines in a file rather than on the CC command line at
kernel build time. This means that 'make depend' will catch dependencies
on actual *options*, meaning that you can run 'config' and 'make depend'
in complete safety WITHOUT removing the compile directory each time.
Unfortunately, this requires a pass over the source to get the individual
files to #include the new .h files that would be generated by config.
This has a small compile time penalty (appears up to about 2% slower)
from a "fresh" build. Of course, you should not be needing to do complete
rebuilds very often once this was completed, so it would be an overall
win for most people.
Since this code is dormant and we've got a lot of other things happening
on the kernel tree at the moment (prototypes, devfs, static declarations
etc) I am not planning on doing any changes to activate this feature just
yet.
sendmail mailing list. Our /etc/rc will be fixed instead.
It seems sendmail becomes more and more incompatible, f.e.
Return-Receipt-To not works anymore :-(

Subject: Yet another IPXrouted fix
I think these should
should make IPXrouted fairly stable. These last problems only showed when
we had more than one route of the same cost to a net.
This will fix some endless loops in the clone code.

Sigh, I really hate this "feature". I'm tempted to comment the test out
(like in sendmail 8.6.xx), especially since we log the info in the
Received: header line anyway.. Doing it like this only makes it painful
for things like uucp..
turn off the read data block timeouts. This was inspired by the same fix
in sendmail-8.7, but the code in this area is somewhat different. (8.7
is much more sensible). This will stop the infamous
"timeout waiting for input during message body read" on long running jobs,
eg: /etc/daily | mail root.
`interesting' feature of syslogd turned up. It calls getbootfile() for each
log entry. Since the kernel makefile now changes kern.bootfile when doing
a 'make install', it's quite startling to see the syslog lines change.
This change makes it call getbootfile() once at startup and cache it,
saving a syscall per loop, and keeping something a little more asthetically
pleasing in /var/log/messages...
Here is some patches to IPXrouted. It does the following:
Always use the sap port in the destination address of sap broadcasts.
Clear the host part of network addresses so that routes will really
be deleted in the kernel.
