appropriate.
This allows 5.3 tools to build a 6.x userland when these
values are set to null.
Now this flag can be set, or not set, for memory-backed
file systems on individual basis, as illustrated by the
rc.conf(5) variables tmpmfs_flags and varmfs_flags. The
flag is set for those FS'en by default, in /etc/defaults/rc.conf,
in order to stay compatible with the old rc.subr behaviour.

now run on any interface.
- Add a new ifconfig_<ifn> keyword, NOAUTO which prevents configuration
of an interface at boot or via /etc/pccard_ether. This allows
/etc/rc.d/netif to be used to start and stop an interface on a purely
manual basis. The decision to affect pccard_ether may be revisited at
a later date.

fast, lightweight, and generally good way for users to keep their
ports trees up to date.
This is version 0.9.4 from the ports tree (sysutils/portsnap) with
the following changes:
1. The experimental pipelined http code is enabled. No seatbelts
in -CURRENT. (^_^)
2. The working directory has moved from /usr/local/portsnap to
/var/db/portsnap (as discussed on -arch two days ago).
3. Portsnap now fetches a list of mirrors (distributed as DNS SRV
records) and selects one randomly. This should help to avoid the
uneven loading which plagues the cvsup mirror network.
4. The license is now 2-clause BSD instead of 3-clause BSD.
5. Various incidental changes to make portsnap fit into the base
system's build mechanics.

Hopes he didn't forget any files: cperciva
We're checking for /var/run/jail_<name>.id file and if it exists, we don't
start the jail. It should be also safe in case of reboot(8), because
rc.d/cleanvar script is going to remove /var/run/jail_* files.
It helps to avoid potential mess when the same jail is started twice,
because of an administrator mistake (been there, done that).

ifconfig_DEFAULT variable. Unlike pccard_ifconfig, ifconfig_DEFAULT
applies to all interfaces that do not specify an ifconfig_<ifn>
variable rather than just those listed in removable_interfaces.
- Correct the list of interfaces when network_interfaces and
removable_interfaces are both set by including removable_interfaces
in the list of canidates.
- When listing dhcp interfaces, include those with other ifconfig
options so nat works.

and modules don't have anything like a description), so this function
would always return false. That would cause prestart to attempt to
load the module even if it's already loaded, which would fail and
prevent the rules from being loaded.

GENERIC comment in ttyN.
- Add the name of the device driver creating the device nodes above the
respectives blocks so it's easier for user to find the right entry to
shut up warnings from getty(8). Replace 'Requires device 'uart' be
enabled.' with just 'uart(4)' as the former referred to a sparc64
GENERIC back when uart(4) wasn't enabled by default, yet.
- Turn off the getty(8) on screen as screen is created by ofw_console(4)
which is no longer enabled in the sparc64 GENERIC (and also only is a
last resort) to shut up warnings from getty(8) with the current GENERIC.
method of executing commands remotely. There are no rexec clients in
the FreeBSD tree, and the client function rexec(3) is present only in
libcompat. It has been documented as "obsolete" since 4.3BSD, and its
use has been discouraged in the man page for over 10 years.
- Implement sampling modes and logging support in hwpmc(4).
- Separate MI and MD parts of hwpmc(4) and allow sharing of
PMC implementations across different architectures.
Add support for P4 (EMT64) style PMCs to the amd64 code.
- New pmcstat(8) options: -E (exit time counts) -W (counts
every context switch), -R (print log file).
- pmc(3) API changes, improve our ability to keep ABI compatibility
in the future. Add more 'alias' names for commonly used events.
- bug fixes & documentation.
