fail with "bind: address already in use". This problem was reported
to the freebsd-stable@ mailing list on Feb. 19 under the subject
heading "statd/lockd startup failure" by george+freebsd at m5p dot com.
The problem is that the first combination of {udp,tcp X ipv4,ipv6}
would select a port# dynamically, but one of the other three combinations
would have that port# already in use. The patch is somewhat involved
because it was requested by dougb@ that the four combinations use the
same port# wherever possible. The patch splits the create_service()
function into two functions. The first goes as far as bind(2) in a
loop for up to GETPORT_MAXTRY - 1 times, attempting to use the same port#
for all four cases. If these attempts fail, the last attempt allows
the 4 cases to use different port #s. After this function has succeeded,
the second function, called complete_service(), does the rest of what
create_service() did.
The three daemons mountd, rpc.lockd and rpc.statd all have a
create_service() function that is patched in a similar way. However,
create_service() has non-trivial differences for the three daemons
that made it impractical to share the same functions between them.

-h bindip
Specify specific IP addresses to bind to for TCP and UDP requests.
This option may be specified multiple times. If no -h option is
specified, rpc.statd will bind to INADDR_ANY. Note that when specifying
IP addresses with -h, rpc.statd will automatically add 127.0.0.1 and if
IPv6 is enabled, ::1 to the list.

otherwise mmap() gets called multiple times, which eventually fails due
to address space exhaustion on i386.

-----------------------------
Most of the userland changes are in libc. For both the alpha
and the i386 setjmp has been changed to accomodate for the
new sigset_t. Internally, libc is mostly rewritten to use the
new syscalls. The exception is in compat-43/sigcompat.c
The POSIX thread library has also been rewritten to use the
new sigset_t. Except, that it currently only handles NSIG
signals instead of the maximum _SIG_MAXSIG. This should not
be a problem because current applications don't use any
signals higher than NSIG.
There are version bumps for the following libraries:
libdialog
libreadline
libc
libc_r
libedit
libftpio
libss
These libraries either a) have one of the modified structures
visible in the interface, or b) use sigset_t internally and
may cause breakage if new binaries are used against libraries
that don't have the sigset_t change. This not an immediate
issue, but will be as soon as applications start using the
new range to its fullest.
NOTE: libncurses already had an version bump and has not been
given one now.
NOTE: doscmd is a real casualty and has been disconnected for
the moment. Reconnection will eventually happen after
doscmd has been fixed. I'm aware that being the last one
to touch it, I'm automaticly promoted to being maintainer.
According to good taste this means that I will receive a
badge which either will be glued or mechanically stapled,
drilled or otherwise violently forced onto me :-)
NOTE: pcvt/vttest cannot be compiled with -traditional. The
change cause sys/types to be included along the way which
contains the const and volatile modifiers. I don't consider
this a solution, but more a workaround.
