as part of rc. Doing this, and the sourcing of rc.subr after we have
determined if we are booting diskless (and correspondingly run
rc.initdiskless if necessary) are safe, and actually allow fewer files
to be needed on the diskless box. This also allows variables from
the configuration to be available to rc itself, such as ...
Add a variable to rc.conf, early_late_divider, which designates the
script which separates the early and late stages of the boot process.
Default this to mountcritlocal, and add text to etc/defaults/rc.conf,
rc.conf(5) and diskless(8) which describes how and why one might want
to change this.

Implement ``one'' prefix to allow a "one shot" operation as if
${rcvar}=yes yet all the other prerequisite tests are still performed.

more gentle approach to the problem of "manipulate this disabled
service without editing rc.conf(5)".

- Sort MAN and MLINKS in "dictionary" order ignoring case.
- For multi-value MAN and multi-pair MLINKS, put each value/pair
on its own line, for easier sorting and so that further diffs
are easier to see.
kernel BOOTP options is *not* required if the boot loader can pass
network configuration information to the kernel using the kernel
environment. As such, PXE doesn't require them. However, the NFS
options are required in the kernel (previously not documented).

/rescue, from section 7 to section 8. The old rescue.7 file has been
simply subjected to "cvs rm", as there is no history to preserve.
Update the release documentation accordingly.
