features appear to work, subject to the caveat that you tell gcc you
want standard rather than recklessly fast behavior
(-mieee-with-inexact -mfp-rounding-mode=d).
The non-standard feature of delivering a SIGFPE when an application
raises an unmasked exception does not work, presumably due to a kernel
bug. This isn't so bad given that floating-point exceptions on the
Alpha architecture are not precise, so making them useful in userland
requires a significant amount of wizardry.

with an ASUS A7N8X-E motherboard in APIC mode, since storming interrupts
don't repeat immediately. Use DELAY(1) to wait a bit for them to repeat.
This affects all systems. Only delay for the first
(10 * intr_storm_threshold) interrupts (per interrupt handler) so that
this is only a pessimization while warming up. Throttle after calling
the sub-handlers instead of before so that the long delay given by
throttling can be used instead of the DELAY(1) to detect storms after
warming up.
Reduced the throttling period from 1/10 second to 1/hz seconds so that
throttling doesn't destroy performance so much. Interrupts that are
detected as storming are effectively handled by polling at a frequency
of hz Hz. On A7N8X-E's there is another hardware or configuration bug
that makes the throttled frequency closer to 2*hz Hz.
Remove references to termcap@berkeley.edu and uunet!ucbvax!termcap in
favor of send-pr(1).
Add comment about how to use cap_mkdb to build a new termcap db.

instead do the little profiling we need before re-enabling interrupts.
Use 1 quantum as estimate for C1 sleep duration since the timer interrupt
is the main reason we wake.
While here, change the cx_history sysctl to cx_usage and report statistics

intuitive than counters. Remove the cx_stats structure since it's no
longer used. Update the man page.

version called the higher-level archive_read_data and
archive_read_data_skip functions, which screwed up state management of
those functions. This bit of mis-design has existed for a long time,
but became a serious issue with the recent changes to the
archive_read_data APIs, which added more internal state to the
high-level archive_read_data function. Most common symptom was a
failure to correctly read 'L' entries (long filename) from GNU-style
archives, causing the message ": Can't open: No such file or
directory" with an empty filename.
