Move a.out libraries to /usr/lib/aout to make space for ELF libs.
Make rtld usr /usr/lib/aout as default library path.
Make ldconfig reject /usr/lib as an a.out library path.
Fix various Makefiles for LIBDIR!=/usr/lib breakage.
This will after a make world & reboot give a system that no
longer uses /usr/lib/*, infact one could remove all the old
libraries there, they are not used anymore.
We are getting close to an ELF make world, but I'll let this
all settle for a week or two...
properly. Only users of 4 MB machines might not want it this way (to
prevent accidentally clobbering the coredump), but they are somewhat
in the minority these days.
Enable this by setting clear_tmp_enable in rc.conf to YES. Beware
there can be serious side-effects of enabling this, so use at you own
risk.

nfs requests from non-privileged ports.
Change mountd such that it does never set this variable, but only clears
it when run with -n. Also document this in the man page.
Leave dumpdev, but kill the savecore variable. Thus, it's still off
by default, but all you need is enabling dumpdev now.
phk's old argument that savecore might inadvertendly fill up the disk
no longer counts, savecore now correctly obeyes a `minfree' file, and
we ship our systems with such a file that even has a reasonable
default.
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.
wondering what the hw-config of a machine is, and the logs have been
rotated many times since reboot already.
Added:
/sbin/dmesg > /var/tmp/dmesg.boot
to /etc/rc

This is a lot more robust and handles errors a lot better. It also cleans
up stray, hopeless, or unmodified files rather than leaving them there
forever.
. crate the symlink for /dev/log if required, then
. remove the old socket (savecore might have already created it
accidentally), then
. start syslogd.
(Btw., our test(1) misses an option to test for a socket.)
- split the "starting network daemons" in half.
- The first half starts things necessary to get full name service up.
- The quota check etc moved from "before network" to after the name
services are running. quotacheck does a while(p=getpwent()) which
isn't real good without YP running...
- moved rwhod a little later to put it with the other network stuff.
- deferred inetd a tad so that it's after ldconfig and dev_mkdb,
otherwise you get logins before you're ready.
Unresolved: named is started before ypserv/ypbind still, but named does
a while(s = getservent()) and while (p=getprotoent()) to suck in the
entire database into memory. This means you cannot have a "+" in the
/etc/services or /etc/protocols files or you get a long hang at boot.
