directly to ioctl(2). Because of how ioctl command is build using _IO*()
macros we have only 13 bits to encode structure size. So the structure
can be up to 8kB-1.
Currently we define IOCPARM_MAX as PAGE_SIZE.
This is IMHO wrong for three main reasons:
1. It is confusing on archs with page size larger than 8kB (not really
sure if we support such archs (sparc64?)), as even if PAGE_SIZE is
bigger than 8kB, we won't be able to encode anything larger in ioctl
command.
2. It is a waste. Why the structure can be only 4kB on most archs if we
have 13 bits dedicated for that, not 12?
3. It shouldn't depend on architecture and page size. My ioctl command
can work on one arch, but can't on the other?
Increase IOCPARM_MAX to 8kB and make it independed of PAGE_SIZE and
architecture it is compiled for. This allows to use all the bits on all the
archs for size. Note that this doesn't mean we will copy more on every ioctl(2)
call. No. We still copyin(9)/copyout(9) only exact number of bytes encoded in
ioctl command.
Practical use for this change is ZFS. zfs_cmd_t structure used for ZFS
ioctls is larger than 4kB.

for regenerating OpenSSL manual pages.
- Explicitly set the OpenSSL release date so manual pages contain
the date OpenSSL was released and not just the date OpenSSL was
imported into the FreeBSD base system.
- Update for Makefile for OpenSSL 0.9.8n.
This fixes CVE-2010-0740 which only affected -CURRENT (OpenSSL 0.9.8m)
but not -STABLE branches.
I have not yet been able to find out if CVE-2010-0433 impacts FreeBSD.
This will be investigated further.

I've tested this with one of my es1370 cards and I can confirm that it
works.

This is a partial sync against the DragonflyBSD sources, where a lot of

(1) We don't need a custom install_kernel. We can install without
symbols by adding INSTALL_NODEBUG (which likely should be
WITHOUT_KERNEL_SYMBOLS_FILE, or something shorter) to CONF_INSTALL
(2) for make buildenv stage, use NANO_MAKE_CONF_BUILD rather than the
non-existant NANO_MAKE_CONF.

wcstoimax and wcstoumax, rather than spelling it __wchar_t. This is necessary
to use these functions in C++ where wchar_t is different to __wchar_t and is
a built-in type.
It may be better to use __wchar_t here and to simply define __wchar_t as being
wchar_t in C++ mode rather than to bring in wchar_t, but this is less invasive
and follows our existing practice, and restores wchar_t usage in this file to
what it was before r1.8.
