282e0f015b Fixed the "To build a kernel" section to mention -DALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE
as the new sys/conf/kmod.mk depends on a make(1) bugfix now.

source tree is on a ccd device.

a26df538d2 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.

4b065e2ce1 Per previous announcement, remove the old version of the rc system.
All functionality from the previous system has been preserved, and
users should still customize their system boot with the familiar
methods, rc.conf, rc.conf.local, rc.firewall, sysctl.conf, etc.

Users who have customized versions of scripts that have been removed
should take great care when upgrading, since the compatibility code
that used those old scripts has also been removed.

NODEVFS option has been removed and DEVFS thereby made standard.
	This makes all references to MAKEDEV obsolete, and the should
	be removed when convenient.
