Updated release notes: Augmented sha(1)/rmd160(1) note, updated pf(4)
pseudo-users, retweaked doscmd note to reinstate a missing word I
deleted by accident [1] and add some more info.
MFCs noted: ppp(8) LQM, ppp(8) set rad_alive.

was deleted as it was redundant (the driver itself is new and this
fact has its own note).
- Make "die()" more verbose.
- Do not put extra blank lines into the output file.
- Normalize text by using numeric entities because
some characters such as "'" can break the generated SGML.
