74250a12b7 Since we upgraded compilers, and the kernel build to match, we can't build
new kernels on older userlands.  Document this fact in the entry that talked

99fe82d8e6 Ports related rc.d cleanups:
o Separate out local (ports) scripts that use rc.d, and the old style
  startup/shutdown scripts and execute them separately. On startup the
  rc.d style scripts are executed first and then the old-style scripts.
  On shutdown, exactly the reverse happens.
o The rc.d ports scripts should now behave more like base system scripts.
  Scripts ending in .sh will be sourced into the current shell, while the
  rest will be executed in a subshell. Previously, all ports scripts,
  regardless of the .sh suffix, were executed in a subshell.
o The parent script, /etc/rc.d/localpkg, passes its command line arguments
  straight to the rc.d ports scripts. This means they should now honor
  faststop and faststart commands as well. Old style scripts, should not see
  any differences. They will still get either a start or stop command.
o The initial phrase shown during shutdown has been changed to use
  "local packages" instead of "daemon processes" to be more inline with the
  phrase used during local package startup. The phrases are also used only for
  old-style ports script startup/shutdown, whereas previously they were being
  used for both rc.d and old-style scripts. This should make startup/shutdown
  output a bit less ugly.

f42f4268ea Add "privsep" user/group _pflogd:_pflogd (64:64) to make pflogd(8) work
again. This user/group is not required for install* targets, hence do not
add them to CHECK_UIDS/CHECK_GIDS in Makefile.inc1 (no need to annoy
people).

32b926e0fb Change the return value of sema_timedwait() so it returns 0 on
success and a proper errno value on failure.  This makes it
consistent with cv_timedwait(), and paves the way for the
introduction of functions such as sema_timedwait_sig() which can
fail in multiple ways.

Bump __FreeBSD_version and add a note to UPDATING.
