1c598c2c17 New release notes: Use net/cvsup, rather than net/cvsup-bin and
net/cvsupd-bin.  Also note CVSup update to fix S1G bug.

I'm breaking a self-imposed rule of not mentioning ports-collection
updates in release notes.  I'm only doing this because CVSup is a
fairly essential part of the FreeBSD Project infrastructure.  Save
for exceptions such as this, the release notes will continue to
document changes to the base system only.

f6b1b0cc33 If NO_LANGCODE_IN_DESTDIR is defined, don't put the language code in
DESTDIR.  This avoids redundant information in the path when DOCDIR
points to some directory that already implies (or specifies) a certain
language.  This is the case with the web site, where the release notes
are already installed under a language-specific directory.  This
behavior is not being made mandatory because it might still be useful
to install all the translations in one directory, such as during
testing, or in a hypothetical release notes archive.  Furthermore, it
is not being made the default because that breaks consistency with
stuff under doc/.

d33a962d07 Move /etc/defaults/make.conf to /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf as
