targets to be run without root privilege.
Information about ownership, group, flags, and suid bits are stored in
the file specified by METALOG which defaults to ${DESTDIR}/METALOG.
This file can be used in conjunction with bsdtar or makefs to generate
archives or file system images with correct permissions.
The packageworld target has been altered to use this metadata allowing
non-root releases (subject to further changes in release/Makefile.)

refactor the link section of distrib-dirs to alwasy install to a full
path (the link contents remain relative as they should).
Eliminate the use of the "rm -r[f] <foo>; ln -s <bar> <foo>" pattern in
favor of "ln -sf <bar> <foo>". None of these links could be directories
on a system installed in the last decade.

Do this per jail started, not per address. This will allow DAD to complete

trying to start before the IPv6 address was available to use and thus
erroring and failing to start.

on a 9.0-RELEASE system without adding extra users and groups to the
passwd and group files.
To prevent potentially risky uid/gid mismatches on systems with
non-standard local values, require that DESTDIR be set if DB_FROM_SRC is
set.

This prevents unprivileged users to lock too much memory.
- Set memorylocked limit to 64Mb for daemon login class.
Some daemons such as amd(8) and watchdogd(8) calls mlockall(2) on
startup, they are run from init(8) which uses daemon login class.
- Set memorylocked limit to unlimited for root login class.

provide dump directory. Eliminate this redundant argument. This changes
the usage, but the only risk here is that a warning will be printed
about directory given as device.
- Update usage of -C option.
- When clearing dump header from the given device there is also no need to
provide dump directory, although additional arguments for -c were not
documented.
- Document that -v can be used with -c and that list of devices can be given.

The XC900M acts as a Ubiquiti XR9 (and I _think_ SR9) by default;
it uses the same 900MHz<->2.4GHz downconverter mapping.
However it has an alternative frequency mapping which squeezes in a couple
more half/quarter rate channels. Since the default HAL doesn't support
fractional tuning (sub-1MHz) in 2.4GHz mode on the AR5413/AR5414, they
implement it using a jumper.

Thankyou to Xagyl Communications for the XC900M NICs and Edgar Martinez
for organising the donation.
Tested:
* XC900M <-> XC900M

TODO:
* Test against SR9 and GZ901 if possible (the IEEE channel<->frequency
mapping may not match up, thanks to the slightly different channels
involved)
auditdistd (distributed audit daemon) to the build:
- Manual cross references
- Makefile for auditdistd
- rc.d script, rc.conf entrie
- New group and user for auditdistd; associated aliases, etc.
The audit trail distribution daemon provides reliable,
cryptographically protected (and sandboxed) delivery of audit tails
from live clients to audit server hosts in order to both allow
centralised analysis, and improve resilience in the event of client
compromises: clients are not permitted to change trail contents
after submission.

Since I've committed this I've receieved roughly an equal
amount of email thanking me for making this change
and asking me to revert it.
I've resisted making this change because
new users tend to prefer less over more

how to change the PAGER on their own.

Its unlikely that anyone actually uses these or cares about these
