resistant to packet loss.
This is not enabled by default for "normal" FreeBSD since it might cause
the server providing the RPC service to be hit heavily with RPC traffic
in case of problems. freefall.FreeBSD.org and hub.FreeBSD.org have been

packet loss when talking to a NIS server.
- Set 1 second retry timeout to further realistically handle UDP
packet loss for yp_next packet bursts. If the packet hasn't come
back within 1 second its rather unlikely to come back at all. There
is still back-off mechanism in RPC so if there is another reason
than packet loss for the lack of response within 1 second, the NIS
server will not be totally bombarded with requests.
This reduces the risk of NIS failing with:
yp_next: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out
considerably. This is mainly a problem if you have larger NIS maps
(like at FreeBSD.org) since enumerations of the lists will cause a UDP
packet bursts where a few packets being lost once in a while do
happen.

* libarchive_test program exercises many of the core features
* Refactored old "read_extract" into new "archive_write_disk", which
uses archive_write methods to put entries onto disk. In particular,
you can now use archive_write_disk to create objects on disk
without having an archive available.
* Pushed some security checks from bsdtar down into libarchive, where
they can be better optimized.
* Rearchitected the logic for creating objects on disk to reduce
the number of system calls. Several common cases now use a
minimum number of system calls.
* Virtualized some internal interfaces to provide a clearer separation

Correct this mistake with his blessing.
- O_NONBLOCK flag has to be set, if it is not set, open(2) will wait for
another process opening the fifo for reading,
- Use O_WRONLY which implies that the file has to be opened _only_ for write.
This is quite tricky situation, because we allow to open a file with
O_RDONLY|O_TRUNC. O_TRUNC modifies a file, but we actually don't open
it for writing. EISDIR is also returned when we try to open a directory
O_RDONLY|O_TRUNC, which is correct.
POSIX says that "The result of using O_TRUNC with O_RDONLY is undefined.",
we choose to accept it (Solaris did the same), that's why "to be modified"
seems more accurate to me.
Details: As a side-effect of restoring a saved FP environment,
fesetenv() overwrites the tag word, which indicates which i387
registers are in use. Normally this isn't a problem because
the calling convention requires the register stack to be empty
on function entry and exit. However, fesetenv() is inlined, so we
need to tell gcc explicitly that the i387 registers get clobbered.
