- Sun GEM aren't used on-board though, so don't claim they'd be.

3081bf98bf Backout this commit since it breaks startup and some scripts in
certain conditions. I haven't been able to find a better solution yet:

    - Set a two read-only variables (${prefix} and ${etcdir}). This is
    especially useful when using /etc/rc.d scripts with third-party
    software installed from ports.
    - Fix rc.d/sshd to work with openssh from ports using ${etcdir}
    instead of hardcoded /etc.
    - Reflect prefix/etcdir changes in rc.subr.8.

        src/etc/rc.d/sshd: rev 1.9 -> 1.10
        src/etc/rc.subr: rev 1.51 -> 1.52
        src/share/man/man8/rc.subr.8: rev 1.11 -> 1.12

Add dhclient_flags_iface and background_dhclient_iface rc.conf options.
(where iface is a specific interface).  These can be used to give
interface specific flags to dhclient.

f6e5e0ad77 Optionally pad outgoing frames to the minimum of 60 bytes (excl. FCS)
before tagging them.  This can help to work around brain-damage in some
switches that fail to pad a frame after untagging it if its length drops
below the minimum.  This option is blessed by IEEE Std 802.1Q (2003 Ed.),
paragraph C.4.4.3.b.  It's controlled by sysctl net.link.vlan.soft_pad.
