1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

f2400d4658 Implemented /home -> /usr/home symlink kludge.
If home basedir would be created in the root partition, create
it under /usr instead, and symlink /basedir -> /usr/basedir.

39791ab333 1) Base home directory is created if it does not already exist if
useradd -m or useradd -D -b are used.
2)	Hyphen allowed in username if not first character. Fix trivial
	bug in error fmt string.
3)	/etc/skeykeys updating changed to do 'inplace' update, commenting
	out a username rather than removing it completely.

d6f907dc7a pw(8) -- a backend utility to manage the user and group databases.
sysinstall's new User&group menu will use it, hence it's a 2.2
candidate despite of providing new functionality.
