found that my syslogd is now running them for several months...
Add an option to syslogd to restrict the IP addresses that are allowed
to log to this syslogd. It's too late to develop the inter-syslogd
communications protocol mentioned in the BUGS section, some 10 years
too late. Thus, restricting the IP address range is about the most
effective change we can do if we want to allow incoming syslog
messages at all.
IMHO, we should encourage the system administrators to use this option,
and thus provide a knob in /etc/rc.* for it, defaulting to -a 127.0.0.1/32
(just as a hint about the usage).
Please state opinions about whether to merge this change into 2.2 or
not (i've got it running on RELENG_2_2 anyway).
to 0775.
This does *not* instantly make any program which "ensures"
mail spool consistency by creating lock files safe in any way
since other tools, like mail.local, will be using flock() semantics
and any such lock file will simply be ignored. It does, however,
allow a lot of things which are currently suid root in order to create
such bogus lockfiles to, at least, be bogus at a much lower level of
privilege (and this is good). Ultimately, of course, everybody should
just use flock.
I am not going to commit anything to this area for a few days.
This is because
1) I want everyone to be DARN sure there is no export of crypto
that may get our USA friends it trouble.
2) I have been asked by the folk developing KTH-eBones to hold off
for their new release.

so that all these makefiles can be used to build libc_r too.
Added .if ${LIB} == "c" tests to restrict man page builds to libc
to avoid needlessly building them with libc_r too.
Split libc Makefile into Makefile and Makefile.inc to allow the
libc_r Makefile to include Makefile.inc too.
because 2 references to _initialize_kcorelow (the other one
from kvm-fbsd.c) resulted. This prevented gdb from working correectly.
delete kcorelow.c from XSRCS in the Makefile.
latin1 looks very ugly on Russian screens/printers and users should
be able to print/view handbook first without inner knowledge of
bsd.sgml.mk tuning.
in savedvp variable and it is used for the argument of
MOUNTTOUNIONMOUNT(). I didn't realize ap->a_vp is modified before
MOUNTTOUNIONMOUNT(), so the change by revision 1.22 is incorrect.
(somebody with better English, please check!)
BTW: Next: entry have wrong name "Network Communications"
in Locale Setup although points to right direction.
Looks like sgmlfmt bug...
