researched by glebius, and incorporated by ISC into the next
version of BIND. Unfortunately, it looks like their release
will come after the release of FreeBSD 6, so we will bring
this in now.
The patch addresses a problem with high-load resolvers which
hit memory barriers. Without this patch, running the resolving
name server out of memory would lead to "unpredictable results."
Of course, the canonical answer to this problem is to put more
memory into the system, however that is not always possible, and
the code should be able to handle this situation gracefully in
any case.
(Note this makes the vendor branch not represent Binutils in the vendor's
CVS repository at any point in time. Portmgr did not like the state of
Binutils on Sparc that represented the point in time the vendor fixed this
issue. I'd rather have fixed this on RELENG_6.)

This allows FreeBSD/PPC to build and run out of stock CVS sources. This
also takes the file off of the vendor branch.

The ipfw tables lookup code caches the result of the last query. The
kernel may process multiple packets concurrently, performing several
concurrent table lookups. Due to an insufficient locking, a cached
result can become corrupted that could cause some addresses to be
incorrectly matched against a lookup table.

(2) loading rules with numbered collections does not order insertion right.
