make the sequencer code fully compatible with the aic7870 (ie 294x adaptors).
I've also added to my local mods putting the sequencer into "FASTMODE" clock.
This gives upwards of 2M/sec write preformance improvement in some scenarios.
There haven't been any reports of this causing problems, and I have been
reaping the benifits of it for more than a week now.
This also includes a new version of the pre-generated file <ugh>

In FreeBSD 2.0 (and therefore, I assume, BSD 4.4) the exit code of ping
is always zero, even if no packets were received.
I would like to propose the following change to /usr/src/sbin/ping/ping.c
to restore this useful behaviour:

flags & 0x1. Somebody should build a kernel with this and see if
the floppy-tape damaged people can turn it off properly with userconfig.
I can't reproduce the original problem here.
This should have been disabled for some time, but I had screwed up ...
This made spurious values appear for fd0 in systat, when there was
NCR SCSI activity.
comconsole will behave as expected. The true problem should be fixed
instead, Bruce' comment for this:

ICRNL doesn't apply to cngetc(). cnputc() unconditionally does the
equivalent of ONLCR; perhaps cngetc() should unconditionally do the
equivalent of ICRNL. Ddb must be checking for CR. Userconfig only
checks for NL. Userconfig works with syscons because pccngetc()
does the conversion. This is probably the wrong place to do it.
Allow chown() to return success if the gid isn't changed even if
the gid is not the caller's. Such gids are normal for files created
in world-writable directories sucj as /tmp. This "fixes" annoying
error messages for mv'ing files created in /tmp to another file
system. mv still preserves the foreign gid of /tmp, but now does
it silently.
operation of each clist. Limit the growth of each clist. Clists
can only grow larger than the reserved minimum if there are free
cblocks in a shared pool. The size of this pool is now fixed
(this could be improved). The reserved and maximum sizes are more
carefully allocated for slip and ppp, depending on the mtu. A maximum
MTU of 16384 is now enforced for ppp.
