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.

to BSD.local.dist.

- 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.
installed. This is the same directory as found on Solaris.
NB: In FreeBSD 4.x and earlier, a script (file) named /etc/security
exists. Does mergemaster need to be taught how to replace a file with
a directory?

so we'll use the more secure default till I have a chance to prove
myself wrong. :)
Add a /var/stats directory to be enabled in named.conf.

by default when named is enabled. Also, improve our default directory
layout by creating /var/named/etc/namedb/{master|slave} directories,
and use the former for the generated localhost* files.
Rather than using pax to copy device entries, mount devfs in the
chroot directory.
There may be some corner cases where things need to be adjusted,
but overall this structure has been well tested on a production
network, and should serve the needs of the vast majority of users.
UPDATING has instructions on how to do the conversion for those
with existing configurations.
- Add OpenBSD example rulesets as advertised in etc/pf.conf and pf.conf(5)
- Tweak the pointer to fit the FreeBSD default location share/examples/pf
- Account for the new directory in BSD.usr.dist (no hier(7) change required
as share/examples is an opaque item there).
