* Make it possible to type a filename to boot1 so that it is possible to
recover from fatally broken versions of /boot/loader.
* Make a start at a CD boot program (not yet functional).
make -jN fail. This fixes the present problem only, not the larger one
of when those internal tools are built and the cross-compiling etc.

bringing in DHCP support. The only thing I left out were Poul-Henning's
newfs changes since I'm not sure if he's brought the rest of that support
into -stable yet. If it turns out that this is the case, I'll MFC those
changes too.
external NatSemi PHY chip was programmed to respond to MII address 24.
In the 3c905B ASICs, the transceiver is internal but it's still mapped
to MII address 24. But *some* 3Com 3c905B ASIC revisions map the
transceiver control registers to *all* MII addresses (0 through 31).
The miibus code probes for PHYs at all MII addresses and because of
this unusual behavior, it will attempt to map the same PHY registers
several times over, which doesn't work.
Naturally, the 3c905B NIC that I tested happened not to exhibit this
behavior.
The fix is to tweak xl_miibus_readreg() and xl_miibus_writereg()
to only respond when attempting to read from MII address 24. This
is safe to do since the 3Com documentation indicates that the PHY
and/or internal transceiver will always be mapped to address 24,
and there are no 3Com XL NICs with more than one PHY.
Add back "src-eBones" to "cvs-supfile" and "secure-cvs-supfile".
Even though the eBones tree is disused, it still has files in the
repository. People fetching the repository might want them.
didn't document the couple day window when the units were in terms of
ticks rather than ms.
Also add note about libreadline major version retrograde motion.
New Features:
Greatly improved VBI capture support. (mainly for the AleVT port)
Supports select() on /dev/vbi
Improved RISC program for RGB+VBI capture to capture both evenodd
VBI data even when only capturing even only (or odd only) video
Based on code from Juha Nurmela <Juha.Nurmela@quicknet.inet.fi>
