Fix a few issues with the lib32 dist so that it includes ldd32.
- Use a better find invocation to purge empty directories from all the dist
trees during a release build. The previous version did not purge
directories whose contents were all empty directories.
- Explicitly blacklist a few files from the lib32 dist instead of using a
whitelist. A better longterm solution is to fix the few offenders to not
install data files during a lib32 install.

Add the ability to build a release from an SVN checkout instead of a CVS
checkout. If SVNROOT is specified, then the source tree will be checked
out from that SVN repository instead of using CVS. ports and docs still
use CVS. If SVNROOT is not specified, then the source tree will be checked
out using CVS. An explicit SVN branch can be specified using SVNBRANCH
(e.g. SVNBRANCH=stable/8). If SVNBRANCH is not set but RELEASETAG is set
to a CVS branch (such as RELENG_8) the appropriate SVN branch will be
inferred from the CVS branch using svnbranch.awk.
Note that there are still several open questions about using SVN instead
of CVS in the release process. However, this does enable one to build a
release from an SVN repository if needed.

FreeBSD docset during 'make release' this will speed up release
builds;
- sysinstall(8) has also been updated to use these packages with a new
menu allowing people to choose what localized doc to install;
- mention in UPDATING that docs from the FreeBSD Documentation project
are now installed in /usr/local/share/doc/freebsd instead of
/usr/share/doc.

free from the 2.88MB that we had using El Torito emulation.
The --iso option was already there, just didn't do anything before.

(Eyes of the daemon not synced and the motd not displayed properly
on black-on-white screens): The first one was not valid anymore
since the text and logo were swapped already, the second one is
fixed by resetting the whole colourscheme instead of only the
background colour.
(also removed svn:keywords from motd since it doesn't have the
string $FreeBSD$ in it)
