Peter Wemm 2b618987fe Rip out the old __stdin/out/err stuff. It was completely 100% useless. :-(
It was foiled because of dynamic copy relocations that caused compile-time
space to be reserved in .bss and at run time a blob of data was copied to
that space and everything used the .bss version..  The problem is that
the space is reserved at compile time, not runtime... So we *still* could
not change the size of FILE.  Sigh.  :-(

Replace it with something that does actually work and really does let us
make 'FILE' extendable.  It also happens to be the same as Linux does in
glibc, but has the slight cost of a pointer.  Note that this is the
same cost that 'fp = fopen(), fprintf(fp, ...); fclose(fp);' has.
Fortunately, actual references to stdin/out/err are not all that common
since we have implicit stdin/out/err-using versions of functions
(printf() vs. fprintf()).

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you have to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
