build on, let alone actually do some useful work on real hardware.
Namely, put it in i386/pc98. There is no bus_dma.h on the other architecures,
tra la.

to resize the buffer and retry as necessary.
Do the conservative thing and make sure enough space is available.

file so that we have a chance of using gcore on non-i386 platforms. Use
linker sets to reduce the registration glue. Remove md-sparc.c, we do not
have an a.out sparc32 port. aoutcore.c was repocopied from gcore.c.
When it is called directly, gcc is smart enough to generate inline
code for it, which is why it wasn't noticed before that it was missing.
fabs() would probably better fit into libm, but it has traditionally been
in libc on FreeBSD, so there is probably software around that makes
assumptions about this by now.
If somebody wanted to, this could for the beginning of a "libkernel"
which could be used to run kernel code in userland.

Introduce biowait() function. Currently there is a race condition and the
mitigation is a timeout/retry. It is not obvious what kind of locking (if any)
is suitable for BIO_DONE, since the majority of users take are of this
themselves, and only a few places actually rely on the wakeup.

I wish that the C language contained this as part of struct definintions,
but failing that, I would settle for an agreed upon set of functions for
packing/unpacking integers in various sizes from byte-streams which may
have unfriendly alignment.
This really belongs in <sys/endian.h> I guess.
Modified release notes: newsyslog(8) now uses bzip2(1) by default.
Move two TCP-related release notes from the general kernel section to
the networking protocols section. Minor wording adjustment in one
item, note MFC of the other.

Unfortunately the GCC spec parser will not allow us to properly detect the
"iso9899:1990" and "iso9899:199409" forms of the acceptable -std= arguments,
because of the ':' in the -std argument. :-( I have left them in the spec
as a place holder in hopes someone knows a way to make the detection of
them work.

(what we want to mask is the ATA interrupts, which run at level splbio),
and add interrupt masking around the statement that modifies the
request queue for a SIM.
This resolves problems reported by users under heavy ATAPI load.
