x86 CPU support, better support for powerpc64, some new directives, and
many other things. Bump __FreeBSD_version, and add a note to UPDATING.
Thanks to the many people that have helped to test this.

All 9.6 users with DNSSEC validation enabled should upgrade to this
version, or the latest version in the 9.7 branch, prior to 2011-03-31
in order to avoid validation failures for names in .COM as described
here:

In addition the fixes for this and other bugs, there are also the
following:
* Various fixes to kerberos support, including GSS-TSIG
* Various fixes to avoid leaking memory, and to problems that could
prevent a clean shutdown of named
Also remove local overrides that are now in the contrib tree.
This is a direct commit to contrib/ as we will no longer import any
newer groff snapshots, due to licensing issues.

Mark gcc-provided asm files as not requiring executable stack.
It seems that non-FreeBSD ABIs for powerpc64 claim stack non-executable.
Due to this, rs6000_elf_end_indicate_exec_stack() only emit the note for
32 bit target. I decided not to change FreeBSD ABI and patch
emit the notes for both variants.

'linker stubs'. Add .note.GNU-stack for the stubs objects. Without this,
final binary will have RWE mode for PT_GNU_STACK regardless of the
actual requirements.

dialog is distributed from GPLv2 to LGPLv2 and introduces a number of new
features and a new and better libdialog API. The existing libdialog will
be kept temporarily as libodialog for compatibility purposes until sade,
sysinstall and tzsetup have been either updated or replaced.
__FreeBSD_version is now 900030.

it should also be MI. The problem here arises when ld ends up linking a
link-once section with relocations against sections that point back to it
that are as yet unresolved. Instead of piecemeal finding sections we
think are potentially subject to this issue, just defer processing for
sections that have yet to be relocated instead of immediately bailing.
actually work, linking of libgcc_s.so.1 on ia64 will fail with:
unwind-ia64.So(.text+0x1762): In function `_Unwind_FindEnclosingFunction':
: undefined reference to `_Unwind_FindTableEntry'
unwind-ia64.So(.text+0x1d82): In function `uw_frame_state_for':
: undefined reference to `_Unwind_FindTableEntry'
/usr/bin/ld: libgcc_s.so.1: hidden symbol `_Unwind_FindTableEntry' isn't defined
Repair this by not hiding the _Unwind_FindTableEntry symbol; on FreeBSD,
it is in libc, not in libgcc.

thread specific informations.
In order to do that, and in order to avoid KBI breakage with existing
infrastructure the following semantic is implemented:
- For live programs, a new member to the PT_LWPINFO is added (pl_tdname)
- For cores, a new ELF note is added (NT_THRMISC) that can be used for
storing thread specific, miscellaneous, informations. Right now it is
just popluated with a thread name.
GDB, then, retrieves the correct informations from the corefile via the
BFD interface, as it groks the ELF notes and create appropriate
pseudo-sections.

Not doing so may cause all sorts of random libraries to expose
