c5897626b9 When deleting empty directories prior to building the release tarballs,
pass the "-empty" flag to find(1).  This change has no effect other
than to get rid of a few pages of "rmdir: ...: Directory not empty"
error messages.  (Note that the "-empty" flag has been supported by
find(1) since 4.3-RELEASE.)

2098204d62 For some reason, it looks like SA-06:{10,11,12,13} were not mentioned
in HEAD's release notes, even though the issues involved were applied
(and fixed).  Copy their descriptions from one of the RELENG_*
branches (RELENG_5 in this case).

SA-06:08 and SA-06:09 were not applicable to code on HEAD and thus not
mentioned.

9fb20bbc2a MFCs noted: bsdiff(1)/bspatch(1), cmp(1) -h, netstat(1) -h,
"sweeping" ping(8), sh(1) built-in times.

I uncovered these in a sweep of items that need to be merged to
the 5.4 release notes.  It's possible that all of these items
should have been in the 6.1 release notes (not confirmed).
