In the recent history sh(1) has gain the missing features for it to
become a usable interractive shell:
- command completion
- persistent history support
- improvements on the default bindings in emacs mode
- improvements in the vi mode (repect $EDITOR)
- print a newline when exiting via ^D
- default prompt and improvements on how PS1 can be configured
- and more.
This changes also simplifies making tiny freebsd images with only sh(1)
as a shell
Dummynet now no longer requires ipfw, so any users relying on this
dependency to load ipfw will need to explicitly load ipfw.
While here fix a typo in the date of the previous entry.

You might not be able to build the kernel if you have an awk between
Jul 7th and today. It does not affect all platforms due to the nature
of the bug (so amd64 is unaffected in stable/13 or current, but
is affected in stable/12. i386 seems to be affected everywhere).

The updating entry can be used for release notes. I'll merge this to
stable/12 and stable/13 to make sure it gets into thier release notes.

This fixes a couple of typos in older entries, and clarifies the
language of a newer one. It also removes a joke that trips up
foreign readers due its use of faux archaic English.

Update the UPDATING file for PC Card device removal. Also note that
1300134 is used for the FreeBSD_version since wulf@ just bumped that
in the last few hours.
This is the final half of splitting r358153 in two, in order to avoid a build
system bugs and being able to merge an earlier change to previous releases.
Add a note to UPDATING to avoid people building from very old systems from
having issues with mergemaster

GDB 6.1.1 was released in June 2004 and is long obsolete. It does not
support all of the architectures that FreeBSD does, and imposes
limitations on the FreeBSD kernel build, such as the continued use of
DWARF2 debugging information.
It was kept (in /usr/libexec/) only for use by crashinfo(8), which
extracts some basic information from a kernel core dump after a crash.
Crashinfo already prefers gdb from port/package if installed.
Future work may add kernel debug support to LLDB or find another path
for crashinfo's needs, but in any case we do not want to ship the
excessively outdated GDB in FreeBSD 13.
