Do a few things I've been threatening to do for a long time:
...
1. Don't use the MSDOSFS code for accessing FreeBSD distribution data.
Use Robert Nordier's stand-alone DOS I/O library for the purpose.
It this works as well as Robert says it does, it should drastically reduce
(or even eliminate) our "I can't install from my DOS partition!" calls.
2. As a result of the above, go to stdio file descriptors for all
media types.
3. Taking advantage of #2 , start using libftpio for FTP transfers instead
of maintaining our own parallel version of the FTP transfer code.
Yay! I ripped something out for a change!

Several areas of improvement:

o Remove the xperimnt and commerce distribution items; they haven't
been actual distributions for awhile.
o Try to sanitize the device checking code a little more.
o Cosmetic work on the network code.
