IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.
Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
Use MACHINE_CPUARCH in preference to MACHINE_ARCH. The former is the
source code location of the machine, the latter the binary output. In
general, we want to use MACHINE_CPUARCH instead of MACHINE_ARCH unless
we're tesitng for a specific target. The isn't even moot for
i386/amd64 where there's momemntum towards a MACHINE_CPUARCH == x86,
although a specific cleanup for that likely would be needed...
enabled by default in NETSMB and smbfs.ko.
With the most of modern SMB providers requiring encryption by
default, there is little sense left in keeping the crypto part
of NETSMB optional at the build time.
This will also return smbfs.ko to its former properties users
are rather accustomed to.

the kernel by wrapping all targets for fake opt_*.h files in
.if defined(KERNBUILDDIR). Thus, such fake files won't be
created at all if modules are built with the kernel.
Some modules undergo cleanup like removing unused or unneeded
options or .h files, without which they wouldn't build this way
or the other.

o Remove stale/bogus opt_foo.h files. These are left over from
by-gone resources. And they point to the need, yet again, to
improve the build system so meta information is only in one place.

KMODDEPS seems to be a no-op in HEAD, but is required in RELENG_4,
where MODULE_DEPEND seems to be a no-op.
Therefore, this change is harmless in -CURRENT, but will fix the
dependencies when merged to RELENG_4, where they are currently not
registered!
