for section 9 man pages.

2c5eecfa59 Update mdoc.samples(7) to reflect that section 9 is a valid man page
section.  Update some descriptions of the various sections to
reflect that they are valid for section 9 man pages.  Add a table
of section numbers and what they are used for.

6ac7e896c3 Hack -> compromise
hacker -> intruder (couldn't desired between this and 'cracker')
config -> configuration
sorted crossreferences
spell checked

Overall very good content, but we need one of our wordsmiths to change the
tone to match the CSRG manpages.

83d04c760a Change documentation for `make package' (Thanks (indirectly) O'Brien!).
Document `make readmes'.  This is getting old, and the intent is to
stop questions regarding it; however, I have a suspicion documenting it
will work counter to ending questions about it and am mentally prepared
to see it go-ooooooooo.......

The atexit() function returns the value 0 if successful; otherwise the
value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the
error.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.
