version has a bug where it fails to properly cancel the polling loop
that periodically queries the BSSID (this is done to detect the
association/disassociation state). The timeout is supposed to fire
once a second, but the eloop_cancel_timeout() call uses a different
'user data' value than what was passed to eloop_register_timeout(),
so cancelling the timeouts fails. This results in an additional timeout
being created each time an EAPOL packet is received, which can lead
to dozens of unwanted timeouts firing every second instead of just one.
the range allowed by that function, resulting in undefined behaviour.
Our undefined behaviour in multibyte locales happened to differ from
glibc's, resulting in errors parsing option strings.

system boot, and hook it up in the system.
The separate script is needed because in the presence of various
interface lists in rc.conf ($network_interfaces, $cloned_interfaces,
$sppp_interfaces, $gif_interfaces, more to come) it is hard to start
them orderly, so that pfsync is brought up after its syncdev, which
is required for the proper startup of pfsync.

file cannot be linked into place when requested (not required) to do it,
reassure them that cpio is still intelligent enough that it will perform
a full copy instead.
This file is already off the vendor branch and there hasn't been a bc
release in more than 4 years so I can't see any harm in fixing this.

researched by glebius, and incorporated by ISC into the next
version of BIND. Unfortunately, it looks like their release
will come after the release of FreeBSD 6, so we will bring
this in now.
The patch addresses a problem with high-load resolvers which
hit memory barriers. Without this patch, running the resolving
name server out of memory would lead to "unpredictable results."
Of course, the canonical answer to this problem is to put more
memory into the system, however that is not always possible, and
the code should be able to handle this situation gracefully in
any case.
