This knob removes the tools that are exclusively used to view and
maintain the databases maintained by utmpx, namely last, users, who,
wtmpcvt, ac, lastlogin and utxrm.
The tool w is not in this list, because it has some other functionality
which is unrelated to utmpx; it is hardlinked to the uptime tool.
The WITHOUT_ACCT switch is supposed to omit tools related to process
accounting, namely accton and sa. ac(8) is just a simple tool that
prints statistics based on data in the utx.log database. It has nothing
to do with the former.
If WITH_BSD_GREP is not set, it will be 'bsdgrep' and GNUgrep will be
'[ef]grep'. Otherwise, BSD-grep will be the grep family, and GNUgrep
will be 'gnugrep'.

Don't build clang bootstrap/build-tools depending on this flag. We also
keep gperf, devd and libstdc++ around to prevent foot-shooting and to
make this a two-way street.
A full featured groff is required during buildworld, so build it always
and don't rely on it being present on the host system.
vgrind(1) is tightly coupled to a roff processor and will not be
built/installed when groff is disabled. Also much of the roff'ed
documentation under share/doc will not be built/installed when
WITHOUT_GROFF is defined.

Deliverables: Small and clean code (1,4 KSLOC vs GNU's 8,5 KSLOC),
lower memory usage than GNU grep, GNU compatibility,
BSD license.
TODO: Performance is somewhat behind GNU grep but it is only
significant for bigger searches. The reason is complex, the
most important factor is that GNU grep uses lots of
optimizations to improve the speed of the regex library.
First, we need a modern regex library (practically by adopting
TRE), add support for GNU-style non-standard regexes and then
reevalute the performance issues and look for bottlenecks. In
the meantime, for those, who need better performance, it is
possible to build GNU grep by setting WITH_GNU_GREP.

Note that this is actually a no-op for most users, as this GNU
cpio was broken on -HEAD and 8-STABLE since last March until
the recent fix.
FreeBSD 8.0+ uses BSD cpio by default and the code is being
actively maintained.

Not only did these two drivers depend on IFF_NEEDSGIANT, they were
broken 7 months ago during the MPSAFE TTY import. if_ppp(4) has been
replaced by ppp(8). There is no replacement for if_sl(4).
If we see regressions in for example the ports tree, we should just use
__FreeBSD_version 800045 to check whether if_ppp(4) and if_sl(4) are
present. Version 800045 is used to denote the import of MPSAFE TTY.

- 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:
- It is opt-out for now so as to give it maximum testing.
- Do not compile your kernel with -fstack-protector-all, it won't work.

a. The BSD version will be built and installed unless
WITHOUT_BSD_CPIO is defined.
b. The GNU version will not be built or installed unless
WITH_GNU_CPIO is defined. If this is defined, the symlink
in /usr/bin will be to the GNU version whether the BSD
version is present or not.
When these changes are MFCed the defaults should be flipped.
2. Add a knob to disable the building of GNU grep. This will
make it easier for those that want to test the BSD version in
the ports.

- i4b support from ppp

default to the value of MK_KERBEROS unless set explicitly by
WITH_GSSAPI/WITHOUT_GSSAPI. (This introduces another type of

- Fix broken logic in lib/Makefile.
WITHOUT_KERBEROS knob. While GSS can be used for other things
some third party software (most notably ports/x11/kdelibs3)
takes the presence of libgssapi as an indication that kerberos
is available, and attempts to link with the kerberos libs. If
they are not available, the build will fail.
Because you might want to use GSS but not kerberos, add a knob
to re-enable it if WITHOUT_KERBEROS is present.
Document the new knob, and the new behavior of WITHOUT_KERBEROS.
