Leap-second smearing is an experimental option that may be specified in
ntp.conf(5) and the -x option on the command line to spread the effect
of a leap-second over an interval as specified by the leapsmearinterval
config file statement. Recommended values are between 7200 (2 hours) and
86400 (24 hours).
It is advised that leap-second smearing not be used for public NTP
servers (https://www.meinbergglobal.com/download/burnicki/Leap\
%20Second%20Smearing%20With%20NTP.pdf). It is also advised that NTP
clients not use a mix of NTP servers using leap-second smearing with
NTP servers not using leap-second smearing as that could cause
undefined client behaviour.
Leap-second smearing was committed to ports net/ntp and net/ntp-devel
by r426825 on 2016-11-22.

as if it were a device path.
Remove language about a=b syntax on the command line. This will not be
implemented due to its limited usefulness. UEFI variables are binary
blobs, on the whole, and a simple work around exists for
strings. Clarify that the new value of the variable is taken from
stdin. Update manual with history.

-p only handles updating /etc/master.passwd and /etc/group . No more,
no less.
Also, mergemaster (and no other portions of the vanilla FreeBSD build
process) should be messing with __MAKECONF or SRCCONF as part of the
installworld or distribution process. Don't insinuate that mergemaster
does that as it's a false claim.

Some of the changes I introduced to use .ALLSRC were correct in spirit,
but incorrect in reality -- in particular, ../Makefile.inc hadn't been
pulled in via bsd.init.mk (via bsd.lib.mk, bsd.prog.mk), so the value
of .ALLSRC (evaluated immediately) was empty. .include bsd.init.mk
explicitly so we can be certain that the values used as dependencies in
the targets are defined when the target recipe has been evaluated.
Reminder: thou shalt separate out separate functional changes before
committing them.

My attempt to correct the sender/receiver behavior was incorrect.
The source port of the sender for forwarded datagrams is filtered
with -a, and my change in r314585 didn't clarify that point at all.

`*` means that packets will be received from a remote peer on any port.
Since the point of interest is the syslogd instance (not the remote peer),
the appropriate verb is "received", not "sent".

Move cxgbetool from tools/tools to usr.sbin. Compile and install it on
platforms where cxgbe(4) is built by default. Knobs (WITH_CXGBETOOL and
WITHOUT_CXGBETOOL) have been added so that the user can override the

- Clarify -p/-S options by using appropriate subject-verb modifiers
(verb and modifiers suggested that the subject should have been
singular).
- Simplify/correct -a description:
-- Be more terse when describing IPv4 (the "usual dotted notation"
isn't necessarily well understood by the reader). Being blunt and
saying "IPv4 address" with an optional netmask is.
-- prefixlen is the appropriate terminology for IPv6.
-- mask/prefixlen is optional, not required (as noted later on in the
section).
-- split up IPv4/IPv6 use so to clarify both forms.
-- Fix wordiness when describing the optional "service" specifier.
- -T: Use "cannot" instead of "can't" [*].
Bump .Dd for the changes.
