3bfc8044d9 Revert 227466: 
- mvs.4 uses nested '.Bl' tags which appears to confuse man2hwnotes.pl
for hardware note generation

- mps.4 also breaks the build, but I haven't yet identified why

installation chapter of the FreeBSD Handbook, which will be the

2bc2025c44 Add a new rc.conf variable, sendmail_rebuild_aliases, which tells 
/etc/rc.d/sendmail whether or not to run newaliases if the database
is missing or the aliases text file is newer than aliases.db.

In my opinion, the aliases file should never be automatically rebuilt.
The current text form could represent a work in progress.  Therefore,
in FreeBSD 7.0, this new option will default to "NO".  When this rc.d
change is MFC'ed, it will need to remain "YES" to maintain backward
compatibility.
