6b6187c5ff o Expand the text describing the Security options menu.
o Move nfs_reserved_port_only out of security profiles (where it was
  set somewhat improperly) to the Security options menu directly.
  Previously, the variable was set to true for Moderate, but not for
  Extreme, which is at best inconsistent.
o Update the Security Profiles help file to remove reference to the
  NFS reserved port.

o Note that the kernel currently defaults the sysctl to '0', but
  sysinstall has changed it to '1' as a default as of late; however,
  rc.conf sets the value to NO as the default.  This change brings
  them relatively into sync.

5dc8929a4d o Reduce the number of offered security profiles, as we now have a more
conservative default, and actually prompt specifically for inetd rather
  than handling it as a side effect of the security profile.  Update the
  help file to reflect this change.
o Rename "Fascist" to "Extreme" in the source code, to match the names
  presented to the user.
o Remove portmap and inetd from profile management.  Portmap is now
  disabled by default, but automatically turned on if a feature requires
  it (such as NFS, etc).

This is an MFC candidate for 4.4-RELEASE.

d35ae6be6d Update to benefit from David's recent changes to pw(8). The most
obvious effects are that most of the automagically chosen defaults

2.2 fodder, but i'll leave it to Jordan's review.
