- 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:

- Do not compile your kernel with -fstack-protector-all, it won't work.

From the PR description:
The gcc runtime's _Unwind_Find_FDE function, invoked during exception
handling's stack unwinding, is not safe to execute from within multiple
threads. FreeBSD' s dl_iterate_phdr() however permits multiple threads
to pass through it though. The result is surprisingly reliable infinite
looping of one or more threads if they just happen to be unwinding at
the same time.
Introduce the new lock that is write locked around the dl_iterate_pdr,
thus providing required exclusion for the stack unwinders.

in the way we implement handling of relocations.
As for the kernel part this fixes the loading of lots of modules,
which failed to load due to unresolvable symbols when built after
the GCC 4.2.0 import. This wasn't due to a change in GCC itself
though but one of several changes in configuration done along the
import. Specfically, HAVE_AS_REGISTER_PSEUDO_OP, which causes GCC
to denote global registers used for scratch purposes and in turn
GAS uses R_SPARC_OLO10 relocations for, is now defined.
While at it replace some more ELF_R_TYPE which should have been
ELF64_R_TYPE_ID but didn't cause problems so far.
- Sync a sanity check between kernel and rtld(1) and change it to be
maintenance free regarding the type used for the lookup table.
- Sprinkle const on lookup tables.
- Use __FBSDID.

which in turn uses a global variable to cache the result. This
cannot be done before linking is done.

setenv(3) by tracking the size of the memory allocated instead of using
strlen() on the current value.
Convert all calls to POSIX from historic BSD API:
- unsetenv returns an int.
- putenv takes a char * instead of const char *.
- putenv no longer makes a copy of the input string.
- errno is set appropriately for POSIX. Exceptions involve bad environ
variable and internal initialization code. These both set errno to
EFAULT.
Several patches to base utilities to handle the POSIX changes from
Andrey Chernov's previous commit. A few I re-wrote to use setenv()
instead of putenv().
New regression module for tools/regression/environ to test these

potentially dangerous environment variables all together. It should be
noted that the run-time linker will not honnor these environment variables
if the process is tainted currently. However, once a child of the tainted
process calls setuid(2), it's status as being tainted (as defined by
issetugid(2)) will be removed. This could be problematic because
subsequent activations of the run-time linker could honnor these
dangerous variables.
This is more of an anti foot-shot mechanism, there is nothing I am
aware of in base that does this, however there may be third party
utilities which do, and there is no real negative impact of clearing
these environment variables.

The support for RFC 2640 (UTF8) is optional and rudimentary.
The server just advertises its capability to handle UTF-8 file
names and relies on its own 8-bit cleanness, as well as on
the backward compatibility of UTF-8 with ASCII. So uploaded
files will have UTF-8 names, but the initial server contents
should be prepared in UTF-8 by hand, no on-the-fly conversion
of file names will be done.
