data buffering issue that corrupts files if two pw(8)'s run at the
same time as well as changing pw(8) so it uses the same locking
mechanism as PAM, vipw(8), pwd_mkdb(8), etc.

records with time==0 get "the time of the last valid record", while records
where time goes backwards (compared to the previous record) are skipped.
Also prints a message saying how many records were changed or skipped due
to these checks. Check was inspired by a simpler check in OpenBSD's version.
This is all meant to sidestep problems that Tillman Hodgson noticed with 'ac'
when running sparc64 with 64-bit time_t's. The real problem is whatever is
creating wtmp records with ut_time==0, of course, but I have not yet figured
out what is doing that.

so the program compiles without errors or warnings when DEBUG is defined on
sparc64 with 64-bit time_t's. Also have debug statements include the year
when printing records from a different year than 'now'. Also print out a
special timestamp in debug statements when ut_time==0.

means the vnode cannot go away. p2 cannot run yet (and hence cannot exit)
so this should be safe to do at this point. As a bonus, it removes a
block of under-Giant code that was there to support the vref.

This bug has been around for 22 months... either nobody uses printf
with floating-point values, or people are forgetting to check their

ever since alpha/alpha/pmap.c revision 1.81 introduced the list allpmaps,
there has been no reason for having this function on Alpha. Briefly,
when pmap_growkernel() relied upon the list of all processes to find and
update the various pmaps to reflect a growth in the kernel's valid
address space, pmap_init2() served to avoid a race between pmap
initialization and pmap_growkernel(). Specifically, pmap_pinit2() was
responsible for initializing the kernel portions of the pmap and
pmap_pinit2() was called after the process structure contained a pointer
to the new pmap for use by pmap_growkernel(). Thus, an update to the
kernel's address space might be applied to the new pmap unnecessarily,
but an update would never be lost.
they want to delete '*'. It turns out that there is one valid case where
this might happen, installing to an empty DESTDIR.

if_ndis.c has been split into if_ndis_pci.c and if_ndis_pccard.c.
The ndiscvt(8) utility should be able to parse device info for PCMCIA
devices now. The ndis_alloc_amem() has moved from kern_ndis.c to
if_ndis_pccard.c so that kern_ndis.c no longer depends on pccard.
NOTE: this stuff is not guaranteed to work 100% correctly yet. So
far I have been able to load/init my PCMCIA Cisco Aironet 340 card,
but it crashes in the interrupt handler. The existing support for
PCI/cardbus devices should still work as before.
This doesn't yet address the issue of selective restore
of hardlinked files. With cpio format, it's possible to correctly
restore any linked file; the API doesn't yet fully support this.
(There's no way for the library to inform a client whether or not
there's a file body associated with this entry. The assumption
right now is that "hardlink" entries have no file body.)
