Without this flag, if the symlink existed already a new symlink would
be created in the source directory. While harmless if the two symlinks
were the same, it nonetheless caused pointless confusion.
The pathological case is that when there is an existing /etc/namedb
symlink, but named_chrootdir in rc.conf pointed to a different
directory, it was the symlink in /var/named that was getting
updated, not the one in /etc. This led to some difficult to diagnose
problems for users.
(combine with existing seconds-based), treat '-' as punctuation rather
than a negative number indicator (eliminates several special cases),
use a single list of special words instead of several separate lists,
use table-driven abbreviation logic (eliminate duplicate word entries
and special-case abbreviation and plural handling). The result is
shorter, simpler (judging from comments, earlier maintainers didn't
understand the special handling for "negative years"), handles more
cases (e.g., "tu" is now a recognized abbreviation for "tuesday",
"3rd" is now equivalent to "third") and it has 2 fewer shift/reduce
conflicts.
internal error if pax extended attributes were being generated. Being
< 255 characters, the first-pass path editing (to generate a
ustar-compatible name for the main entry) wouldn't occur, and the
second-pass path editing (to generate a ustar name for the pax
attributes entry) assumed the input was already < 245 chars.
The core problem here was using an abbreviated algorithm for the
second pass that relied on the first pass having already run. The
rewritten code is much simpler: It just uses the full path-shortening
algorithm for building both ustar pathnames. This way, the second
ustar pathname will always be short enough.

inherit signal mask from parent thread, setup TLS and stack, and
user entry address.
Also support POSIX thread's PTHREAD_SCOPE_PROCESS and PTHREAD_SCOPE_SYSTEM,
sysctl is also provided to control the scheduler scope.
in other codes. Add cpu_set_user_tls, use it to tweak user register
and setup user TLS. I ever wanted to merge it into cpu_set_kse_upcall,
but since cpu_set_kse_upcall is also used by M:N threads which may
not need this feature, so I wrote a separated cpu_set_user_tls.
- Introduce a global mutex, mac_bsdextended_mtx, to protect the rule
array and hold this mutex over use and modification of the rule array
and rules.
- Re-order and clean up sysctl_rule so that copyin/copyout/update happen
in the right order (suggested by: jhb done by rwatson).
pointer dereferences, possible use of uninitialized variables, and
