accepting connections on the FTP port and forking children processes to
handling them. This is lower overhead than spawning ftpd from inetd and
can be a significant win on busy FTP servers. Be sure to disable ftpd in
inetd.conf if you decide to use this option.
These changes are based on similar changes I made to wu-ftpd and have
been in use on wcarchive for several months.

this broke eg:

By trying to patch the Makefile in the _curent_ directory, rather than
the one in the foo/ directory.
When PPP gets an uncompressed packet, it attempts to save off the TCP/IP
header for use in decompressing subsequant packets. If PPP gets garbage
(such as what happens when there is a port speed mismatch or modem line
noise), it will occasionally mistake the packet as a valid uncompressed
packet. When it tries to save off the header, it doesn't bother to check
for the validity of the header length and will happily clobber not only
the PPP VJC data structure, but parts of other process memory that happens
to follow it...causing, ahem, undesired behavior.

shell to one of the following:
- a non-existent file
- a non-regular file
- a file without any execute bits set
The shell is still set to whatever they entered even if the above
conditions exist (hey, it is the super user doing this after all :-),
but this might give the admin. some warning that they are about to screw
themselves and give them a chance to fix it before it is too late.
Inspired by: some new FreeBSD user on USENET who set his root shell
to a shell that doesn't exist and now can't gain access to root (don't
worry, I sent him some mail on how to recover from this).
"make world" to fail if you use the msun math library and
blow away /usr/include and then do "make world". This is because
the msun math.h isn't installed with the other include files before
xlint is built. It finally gets installed when the msun library
is built.
Perhaps "make world" should install the msun math.h file if
it doesn't install the CSRG math.h, to prevent problems
like this in the future.
is needed because of the vm_fault used to bring the page table page
for the kernel stack (UPAGES) back in. The consequence of the
previous incorrect change was a system hang.
channel at the same time. The functions isa_dma_acquire() and
isa_dma_release() should be used in all ISA drivers which call isa_dmastart().
This can be used more generally to register the usage of DMA channels in
any driver, but it is required for drivers using isa_dmastart() and friends.
Clean up sanity checks, error messages, etc.
Remove isa_dmadone_nobounce(), it is no longer needed
