835bc69189 Implement locking for pfs nodes, when at the leaf. Concurrent access
to information from a single process causes hangs.  Specifically, this
fixes problems (hangs) with concurrent ps commands, when the system is under
heavy memory load.

542f60e05d Update the "CD-ROM not configured" question.
"It would be good to point out that a machine that only has SCSI devices
may also generate this message if an IDE CD-ROM is not configured as
the Master device. Words like these might work ..."

        This generally means that there is no CDROM in the CDROM drive,
        or the drive is not visible on the bus. Feed the drive
        something, and/or check it's master/slave status.

638960af56 Add a facility for a `slow'' CTM delta queue, allowing x' number
of delta's to be mailed out every hour (or however often you schedule
the cron job).

ctm_dequeue is the cron job which takes the stuff from the
queue directory and punts it into sendmail. The chunks of
the deltas (and the complete deltas if they are that small)
are sorted into order before being dispatched, so the people
subscribing should still get the bits in the right order.

The changes to ctm_smail should be fairly safe as they won't be
activated unless you go for the new queue directory option.

70bae2bee1 Implement incremental passwd database updates. This is done by ading a '-u'
option to pwd_mkdb and adding this option to utilities invoking it.
Further, the filling of both the secure and insecure databases has been
merged into one loop giving also a performance improvemnet.
Note that I did *not* change the adduser command. I don't read perl
(it is a write only language anyway).
The change will drastically improve performance for passwd and
friends with large passwd files. Vipw's performance won't change.
In order to do that some kind of diff should be made between the
old and new master.passwd and depending the amount of changes, an
incremental or complete update of the databases should be agreed
upon.
