with export lines where the same hostname was specified more than once
(this happens a lot with netgroups sometimes). Recently I discovered
that it needs to be hacked to deal with multiple instances of the
same IP address too.
I've been using this modification locally for several months with no
hassles.
(a) Note that the default securelevel value is -1, in -current and -stable.
(b) Mention kernel sysctl variable that controls securelevel.
(c) Add warning the `fsck' will fail if securelevel >= 2.
(d) Suggest end of /etc/rc as the right place to raise securelevel.
and one spelling fix.

for filesystems with almost the maximum number of sectors. The maxiumum
is 2^31, but overflow is common for that size, and overflow normally
occurred here at size (2^31 - 4096).
Move a.out libraries to /usr/lib/aout to make space for ELF libs.
Make rtld usr /usr/lib/aout as default library path.
Make ldconfig reject /usr/lib as an a.out library path.
Fix various Makefiles for LIBDIR!=/usr/lib breakage.
This will after a make world & reboot give a system that no
longer uses /usr/lib/*, infact one could remove all the old
libraries there, they are not used anymore.
We are getting close to an ELF make world, but I'll let this
all settle for a week or two...
Fixes bin/6649 and removes the last abusive signal handler.
Use SO_TIMESTAMP to get the kernel to timestamp packets on reception.
Fixes bin/5658 and provides slightly better accuracy.
Explicitly zero and terminate the IP options when using -R.

syndrome avoidance. The combination of SWS avoidance and ack-every-other
causes low throughput if the block size divided by the MSS is odd (which
is true with the default block size and MSS).
Turning on TCP_NODELAY disables the Nagle algorithm and sender SWS avoidance.
The rdump request/response protocol can not invoke Nagle and cannot cause
SWS, so this has no negative effects.
are unaligned for access by the alpha, so copy the value to a variable
that is aligned.
When checking the returned data, be careful to avoid confusing the
size of the icmp header with the size of a timeval. On i386 these
are both 8, but on alpha, a timeval is 16 bytes. This means that
a packet sent from an alpha contains 48 bytes of data, not 56 like
on i386.
umount() was trying to stat() the mountpoint, this would fail if the
mountpoint was a NFS mountpoint, and the fallback code would try and pass
a hostname:/dir path as the mountpoint to unmount(2), which would fail.
This whole stat() of the name supplied on the command line business is
trouble as it'll wedge on a hung NFS mount.
I'm not entirely sure why we are not simply looking up both arguments
in the mount table and doing the right thing without accessing the
filesystem. It seems that we're going to a lot of trouble to allow
mountpoints on symlinks and other wierd things.
