00c5ffa497 Change time_t from a 32-bit value to a 64-bit value, on FreeBSD/sparc64
only.  This is a  MAJOR  incompatible change for the sparc64 platform,
but will not effect FreeBSD on other architectures.

Reviewed by:	imp for UPDATING, freebsd-sparc for the change itself.

b25e3cecbd Add the most vital piece of information WRT upgrading past the

not save your ass if you don't have the option.

f1e94c6f29 Replace the if_name and if_unit members of struct ifnet with new members
if_xname, if_dname, and if_dunit. if_xname is the name of the interface
and if_dname/unit are the driver name and instance.

This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo
device creation and configuration symantics.

a0a7c268e0 Document a workaround for getting past the groff infinite loop problem
when your userland is older tahn your kernel and Makefile.inc1 therefore
thinks that you don't need to rebuild groff, when in fact you do.  This
workaround is to set OSRELDATE to 500110 before building, but only if you
have a new enough Makefile.inc1.

I've confirmed this on my laptop, which was suffering from this problem.
Since it only hits power users, we'll naively assume that such users are
smart enough to read UPDATING.
