Move the code that I have not yet finished documenting into the

o Don't ever refer to ad-hoc mode in the raw. Instead, refer to it as
demo ad-hoc mode or lucent legacy demo ad-hoc or some variation on this
theme.
o Talk about point-to-point modes rather than ad-hoc modes. Use ibss where
appropriate.
o Fix type IBBS -> IBSS
for VOP_GETATTR() and VOP_SETATTR(), reference VOP_NULL() to suggest
clearing all of *vap with it before setting specific values. Cross
reference VFS(9). Indicate that failure modes are possible from
VOP_GETATTR() and that an errno value is returned.

o go ahead and document ibss-master and ibss modes, since there are
patches in the pipeline to support them.
o Note that they aren't implemented yet.
o Note that different regulatory domains have different default
channels.
o Note that Lucent cards prior to firmware 6.0.4 do not support
ibss mode, and only support the older demo ad-hoc mode.
o Note that PRISM2 chipsets do not support WDS mode of operation
(the mysterious -p 2 option).
Change date to today.
Add socket low power WLAN CF card
Add SMC 2602W which I use all the time
Comment out the create-ibss example. FreeBSD doesn't yet have that
media option. Also change it to master-ibss since that's what OpenBSD
really uses (and that is a change in their man page too)
however I'm adding the Dlink DWL520 as supported from OpenBSD. Also
adding Dlink DWL650 since I have one in my hot little hands and it
works great.
# I suspect that OpenBSD needs this too :-)
heavily on OpenBSD's wi man page, with OpenBSDisms replaced by
FreeBSDisms. I also added a note about where the man page came from.
I hope that I've not broken anything that ru cleaned up. We now run
this through tbl, but that appears to be automatic.

1. The committer refused to respond to questions over the commit.
2. The servers rlogind, rshd, rexecd were not wrapped.
3. "rcmnds" as an abbreviation gets an order of magnitude less hits on
Google than the much more well known "rcmds".
Ensure all standard targets honor SUBDIR. Now `make obj' descends into
SUBDIRs even if NOOBJ is set (some descendants may still need an object
directory, but we do not have such precedents). Now `make install' in
non-bsd.subdir.mk makefiles runs `afterinstall' target _after_ `install'
in SUBDIRs, like we do in bsd.subdir.mk. Nothing depended on the wrong
order anyway.
Fixed `distribute' targets (except for the bsd.subdir.mk version) so that
they do not depend on _SUBDIR; `distribute' calls `install' which already
depends on _SUBDIR.
De-standardize `maninstall', otherwise manpages would be installed twice.

clientmqueue (submit mail queue).
The new mailq display is only active if both the old
daily_status_mailq_enable is set to "YES" and the new
daily_status_include_submit_mailq is set to "YES" so people who disabled
440.status-mailq won't have any surprises.
Likewise, the new queue run is only active if both the old
daily_queuerun_enable is set to "YES" and the new daily_submit_queuerun

While I am here, remove the [ ! -d /var/spool/mqueue ] checks from

again."
As an alternative to sendmail_enable=NONE, solve the boot time problem
for non-sendmail users completely by moving all of the sendmail startup
code from /etc/rc to /etc/rc.sendmail. The source for that script will
be kept in src/etc/sendmail/rc.sendmail so make.conf's NO_SENDMAIL will
prevent it from being installed. A new rc.conf variable,
mta_start_script specifies the script to run to start the user's
preferred MTA. For backward compatibility, it will default to
/etc/rc.sendmail. The specified script is called out of /etc/rc after
checking to make sure it exists. A new rc.sendmail.8 man page has also
been added which now houses the sendmail_* variable descriptions
formerly in rc.conf.5.
Use /etc/rc.sendmail in /etc/mail/Makefile to reduce code duplication.

Instead of rc.conf's sendmail_enable only accepting YES or NO, it can now
also accept NONE. If set to NONE, none of the other sendmail related
startup items will be done.
Remove an extra queue running daemon might be started that wasn't necessary
(it didn't hurt anything but it wasn't needed).
The new logic is:
# MTA
if ${sendmail_enable} == NONE
# Do nothing
else if ${sendmail_enable} == YES
start sendmail with ${sendmail_flags}
else if ${sendmail_submit_enable} == YES
start sendmail with ${sendmail_submit_flags}
else if ${sendmail_outbound_enable} == YES
start sendmail with ${sendmail_outbound_flags}

if ${sendmail_enable} != NONE &&
[ -r /etc/mail/submit.cf] && ${sendmail_msp_queue_enable} == YES
start sendmail with ${sendmail_msp_queue_flags}

Back out include/Makefile,v 1.160 that was a null change anyway
due to the bug in the path, and we now don't want to install
these headers because they would otherwise be invisible in the
