when using gdb on a remote target. The fix is to restrict PT_GETDBREGS
calls to `child' and `freebsd-uthreads' targets solely.
I've been in some conversation with Brian about this, and this solution
seems to be the most appropriate one.

in 4.2-REL which I ripped out in -stable and -current when implementing the
low-memory handling solution. However, maxlaunder turns out to be the saving
grace in certain very heavily loaded systems (e.g. newsreader box). The new
algorithm limits the number of pages laundered in the first pageout daemon
pass. If that is not sufficient then suceessive will be run without any
limit.
Write I/O is now pipelined using two sysctls, vfs.lorunningspace and
vfs.hirunningspace. This prevents excessive buffered writes in the
disk queues which cause long (multi-second) delays for reads. It leads
to more stable (less jerky) and generally faster I/O streaming to disk
by allowing required read ops (e.g. for indirect blocks and such) to occur
without interrupting the write stream, amoung other things.
NOTE: eventually, filesystem write I/O pipelining needs to be done on a
per-device basis. At the moment it is globalized.
GCC 2.7.2.3 as that was the version of GCC in active use before the switch
to ELF.
The GCC 2.9[67] versions of these files carry more baggage and I'm not sure
the are appropriate for this linker.
actually NOT '.' and '..'. Apparently this isn't the case when accessing
a directory via XFS over NFS on SGI systems. Since I don't have access to
an environment like that, this will sit out in -current for at least six
weeks. However, the patch proposed by the submitter seems acceptable, so
I've decided to commit it to the tree, in the hope that it will solve some
problems without bringing up others.

o Move the ax88190 code to its own function.
o Move all device_method_t, driver_t and DRIVER_MODULE definitions to the
end of files.
o Wrap a few lines > 80 characters.
o Use the same devclass for all ed drivers. This allows machines with
multiple types of cards to have their cards numbered correctly. Before,
you could wind up with two ed0's.
o Protect if_edvar.h from multiple includes because I was there.
o Add the removable_interfaces variable for list of removable network
interfaces (PC-card ethernet, wireless network and USB ethernet etc).
o ifconfig_<ifn>_alias0, static_routes_<ifn>, removable_route_flush,
/etc/start_if.<ifn> and /etc/stop_if.<ifn> are support.
o removable_route_flush variable is set to "NO" if you want to use the
machine as gateway using two or more removable network cards. If
static routing is needed use static_routes_<ifn> instead of
static_routes or defaultrouter.
o The optional static_routes_<ifn> variable is likely static_routes.
o /etc/start_if.<ifn> and /etc/stop_if.<ifn> are shell script to be
specified that are called when a card is inserted or removed.
multifunction cards and I recieved reports that the card does not
workd by `config auto'. (MFPAO)
o Remove static assign of the IRQ number.
o Remove two duplicated entries.
o Join some entries using regex and fixed matching order problem.
These changes for boot.flp.

Add the -U and --unlink-first options which are the offical verions of our
--unlink localism.
Add support for the "TAR_OPTIONS" environmental variable.
