Colin Percival d37df47d31 Join the 21st century: Cryptography is no longer an optional component
of releases.  The -DNOCRYPT build option still exists for anyone who
really wants to build non-cryptographic binaries, but the "crypto"
release distribution is now part of "base", and anyone installing from a
release will get cryptographic binaries.

DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION
------------------------
An ``X-'' prefixed before a distribution set means that the XFree86
base distribution, libraries, manual pages, SVGA server and a set
of default fonts will be selected in addition to the set itself.
If you select such a set, you will also be presented with a set of
menus for customizing the selections to your desired X Window System
setup.
Any distribution may be further customized by selecting the `Custom'
item before leaving the menu.
The current "canned" installations are provided:
Developer: Base ("bin") distribution, man pages, dictionary
files, profiling libraries and the complete source tree.
Kern-Developer: As above, but with only kernel sources instead of
the complete source tree.
User: The base distribution, man pages, dictionary files and
the FreeBSD 1.x, 2.0, 2.1.x, 2.2.x and 3.x compatibility sets.
Minimal: Only the base distribution.
Everything: The base distribution, man pages, dictionary files,
profiling libraries, the FreeBSD compatibility libraries,
the complete source tree, games and your choice of XFree86
distribution components.
Custom: Allows you to create or modify your distribution set on
a piece-by-piece basis.
Reset: Clear all currently selected distributions.
