sys.mk will .error if it finds /etc/defaults/make.conf but include
it anyways (this is the same behaviour as with the make.conf.local
removal).

Adjust all textes that talk about make.conf or defaults/make.conf to

- build_x.sh now does all the steps to build an X dist rather than being
a child script of package_x_dists.sh
- Update the usage information to list the ports you need to install
before running this script as well as needing to set CVSROOT.
- Make sure CVSROOT is set. If not, exit with an error.
- We now take two parameters: a work directory and an output directory.
The work directory is used as scratch space. All of the bindist will
end up in the output directory.
- Only apply XF86.patch to the checked out XFree86 port if it exists.
- Use XFree86's build-bindist tool to package up the dists using their
distfiles rather than using our own packing lists that have to be
manually updated each time the port changes.
Example usage:

1. Bring floppies.sgml section in-line into install.sgml, where it
makes more sense.
2. Slightly reorganize some sections of Installation section and
do some wordsmithing.
3. Update distribution layout to reflect RELNOTESng and new compat

4. Update upgrade file list from 4-STABLE.
5. It's been a long time since 2.2.X; get rid of instructions dealing
with "new" handling of compatability slices and fix up other references
in the text.
6. Hunt down and kill emoticons with extreme prejudice. Try to
tone down the use of exclamation points.
7. Cross-reference new and improved Installation chapter in
Handbook.
8. Add a proper abstract for this document.
* Rename cvsup-bin to cvsup (cvsup-bin does not exist anymore).
* Add the net/rsync port to the CDROM packages.
* Add the misc/compat* ports.

notes build. Instead of having doc.relnotes.mk make a guess, hardcode
quite a bit (but as little as possible) in Makefile.inc's sprinkled
strategicly throughout the tree. This has the advantage of actually
working properly (which is a Good Thing(tm)), and the disadvantages of
more files in the repository and more hardcoded paths (which are both
Bad Things(tm)).

This applies to -current only.
Make sure hints are statically compiled into the kernel,
because the bootloader is not available in picobsd and so the
hints file cannot be found at run time.
(This is kind of inconvenient if you have to handle non PnP devices,
but fortunately these days non-PnP ISA cards are disappearing...)
This must have to do with the use of devfs in -CURRENT, but i
have no idea when the devfs is actually mounted (is it a
side effect of mount -t nonfs or what ?) and when /dev/fd0c becomes
available.
For the time being, let's use this hack. Once I understand how devfs
works, this can be reverted back to the previous value, and also the
part of the build script which creates device entries can be nuked.
This is for -current only.
better place to handle dependencies.
Make another step at helping cross-compiling: when the user specifies
an alternate source tree, the script takes care of creating include
files and libraries for the new tree.
Furthermore, build and use a version of the "config" program which
matches the new sources.
It takes a long time to create libraries, and it might even not do
the right thing at once, there might be some dependencies that i
have forgotten. At any rate, with this code i have been able to

important ("What's New" in the release notes, "Supported Device" in
the arch-independent hardware list, and the processors section of the
alpha hardware list).
1. Everywhere I could figure out what driver supported a device or
class of device, there is now a cross-reference via a &man entity.
For cases where a driver has no manpage (and hence no &man entity),
we now at least give the name of the driver. For the most part,
this was done by examining driver manpages.
2. A number of devices which are i386-only are now marked as such,
determined by noting manpages or kernel source files in
architecture-specific directories.
3. Added hardware supported by the vpo(4), wl(4), awi(4), and bktr(4)
drivers, based on a read of the manpages.
The manpages and source files in question were taken from 4-STABLE,
(which is what was running on my off-net laptop at the time)
but at this level of detail, I don't expect there to be any appreciable
differences between 4-STABLE and 5-CURRENT.

from Addtron.
This chip supports TCP/IP checksum offload, VLAN tagging/insertion.

I have not done serious performance testing with this driver. I know
it works, and I want it under CVS control so I can keep tabs on it.
Note that there's no serious mutex stuff in here yet either: I need
to talk more with jhb to figure out the right way to do this. That
said, I don't think there will be any problems.
This driver should also work on the alpha. It's not turned on in

the need to also create the entire ports tree during a `make release'.
The main motivation behind this is that handling the ports tree still
takes a huge amount of time due to the large number of directories
involved, even on modern disks.
The solution is to establish a list of dependent ports that are
minimally required. This list needs to be manually maintained in case
the doc ports toolchain changes, and has thus been broken out into a
separate file Makefile.inc.docports. (release/Makefile has gotten
overly lengthy already anyway.)
