problem with using a msgbox was one of truncation in the case of Xdialog(1)
and lack of screen real-estate (since the msgbox is not scrollable in X11
while a textbox is).
The textbox renders the text much better and is more appropriate for this
type of data display.

improve upon the system by giving the user a "Help" button instead of requiring
the user to press F1.
NOTE: In FreeBSD-9 and higher, dialog(1) does not support the F1 hook, so the
mechanism for providing help to the user had to be changed to a button.
This now means we can resurrect *.hlp files from usr.sbin/sysinstall/help/ as-
is and reusing them as-needed in bsdconfig (holding to the goal of losing as
little functionality from sysinstall as possible).

disconnected under the WITH_BSDCONFIG flag (a good idea since this version of
sysrc(8) indeed requires the `sysrc.subr' module installed by bsdconfig(8)).
Multiple reasons sysrc should not simply continue to live in ports. The most
important being that it is tightly coupled with the base.

"clean-room" environment used to query rc.conf(5) parameters.
This brings bsdconfig(8)'s sysrc.subr in-line with both the sysrc(8) manual
[provided by sysutils/sysrc] and sysrc(8)'s own sysrc.subr (now identical to
bsdconfig(8)'s sysrc.subr as of this patch).
Finally, this will allow a clean import of sysutils/sysrc (sans sysrc.subr,
already provided here).

builtin is processed specially and thus the `: > file' syntax for example
will cause premature termination of the current shell on redirection-error.
The `true' builtin on the other-hand is not included in this special
processing (for compatibility reasons to satisfy legacy scripts programmed
for systems where `true' is not a builtin).
Change bare `: > file' syntax into `true > file' syntax to prevent premature
shell termination in the event of redirection-error.
NOTE: Instances of `: > file' that appear within a sub-shell have been left
unmodified as these will not cause premature termination of the main script.
