Beyond changes to the build system, this includes fixing up the sample
freebsd.mc configuration for changes in defaults and syntax, removing
outdated documentation, and updating the release notes.
Make sysinstall override this on install, so the effective behavioural
change for a newly installed system is null. Overall, this makes a system
with an empty /etc/rc.conf not run any network services, and makes the
FreeBSD-provided network services that are running visible in /etc/rc.conf
(instead of making people look through /etc/defaults/rc.conf to find the
things they need to disable to secure the system.)

you need to have ja-tk80 installed.
Now, if a release is specified, instead of just looking for a directory
with the same name as the release, try several possible directories (each
suffixed with the release name) relative to the base directory including
".", "releases/MACHINE", "snapshots/MACHINE", and each of those prefixed
with "pub/FreeBSD/". This will allow us to remove the evil symlinks under
pub/FreeBSD/releases/MACHINE/ to the snapshots on the ftp site.

extra make options such as -jX to speed up release builds.

2. Add FDDI section to table of contents (see #5 below) and add
one line of whitespace.
3. In userland section, document csh->tcsh, more->less, and
colorized ls.
4. In Ethernet section, do:
s/gigabit ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet/
s/fast ethernet/Fast Ethernet/
s/ethernet/Ethernet/
5. Pull DEC DEFPA/DEFEA *FDDI* cards out of the *Ethernet* section
and into their own second-level section.
6. Add missing period in section header in ATM section.
7. Tweak upgrading sectio with some new text, not sure if this is
much better though.
8. Add a blurb about the -stable mailing list.
