so that running make release causes make obj to be run before doing
anything. This fixes a bug wherein, when run for the first time, and
without -DNOSRC, make release would attempt to recursively tar up the src
directory including its own output and enter an infinite loop.
While here, make the cross-building stuff work a little more the way it
should if only one of TARGET/TARGET_ARCH is specified.

Also add two new targets, packageworld and packagekernel, that tar up the

- Use a better find invocation to purge empty directories from all the dist
trees during a release build. The previous version did not purge
directories whose contents were all empty directories.
- Explicitly blacklist a few files from the lib32 dist instead of using a
whitelist. A better longterm solution is to fix the few offenders to not
install data files during a lib32 install.

checkout. If SVNROOT is specified, then the source tree will be checked
out from that SVN repository instead of using CVS. ports and docs still
use CVS. If SVNROOT is not specified, then the source tree will be checked
out using CVS. An explicit SVN branch can be specified using SVNBRANCH
(e.g. SVNBRANCH=stable/8). If SVNBRANCH is not set but RELEASETAG is set
to a CVS branch (such as RELENG_8) the appropriate SVN branch will be
inferred from the CVS branch using svnbranch.awk.
Note that there are still several open questions about using SVN instead
of CVS in the release process. However, this does enable one to build a
release from an SVN repository if needed.

FreeBSD docset during 'make release' this will speed up release
builds;
- sysinstall(8) has also been updated to use these packages with a new
menu allowing people to choose what localized doc to install;
- mention in UPDATING that docs from the FreeBSD Documentation project
are now installed in /usr/local/share/doc/freebsd instead of
/usr/share/doc.

freaks me out. But it turns out we might be able to generalize
a few of the other things RE uses to assemble the package trees
for releases if the DVDs use a naming theme close to what is used
for the CDROMS (disc1, disc2, etc). So change the name to dvd1.
Hopefully this way src/release/scripts/{package-split.py,package-trees.sh}
can be generalized instead of copied-and-hacked.

or not to build a tree used for the creation of a DVD image. If that is
enabled set up a DVD tree by installing everything we normally install
to the individual CDROM trees into the one DVD tree. The result is one
image with all the install bits, livefs bits, and doc bits suitable for
burning to a DVD instead of CDROM.

mininal set of ports required to make the docs. However,
we also need ports/sysutils/cdrtools in order to make the
ISO images. When a platform doesn't have packages, the
release will fail in that case. Add ports/sysutils/cdrtools
to RELEASEPORTSMODULE for the DOMINIMALDOCPORTS case to
handle the NOPORTS release build.
Note that this change doesn't try to handle the NOPORTS with
NODOC case. For we have NOPORTSATALL set and it seems wrong
to check out a ports module in that case.
- It is opt-out for now so as to give it maximum testing, but it may be
turned opt-in for stable branches depending on the consensus. You
can turn it off with WITHOUT_SSP.
- WITHOUT_SSP was previously used to disable the build of GNU libssp.
It is harmless to steal the knob as SSP symbols have been provided
by libc for a long time, GNU libssp should not have been much used.
- SSP is disabled in a few corners such as system bootstrap programs
(sys/boot), process bootstrap code (rtld, csu) and SSP symbols themselves.
- It should be safe to use -fstack-protector-all to build world, however
libc will be automatically downgraded to -fstack-protector because it
breaks rtld otherwise.
- This option is unavailable on ia64.
Enable GCC stack protection (aka Propolice) for kernel:
- It is opt-out for now so as to give it maximum testing.
- Do not compile your kernel with -fstack-protector-all, it won't work.
