the root filesystem without full reboot, using "reboot -r". This can
be used to to eg. boot from a temporary md_image preloaded by loader(8),
setup an iSCSI session, and continue booting from rootfs mounted over
iSCSI.

According to a comment, we cannot safely remove utmpx entries here
anymore. This is because the libc routines may block on file locking. In
an ideal world login(1) should just remove the entries, which is why I'm
disabling this code for now. If it turns out we get lots of stale
entries here, we should figure out a way to deal with that.
logwtmp() gets called with the raw strings that are written to disk. For
regular user entries, this isn't too bad, but when booting/shutting
down, the contents get rather cryptic.
Just call the standardized pututxline().
As discussed on -current, there is no sensitive info in /sbin/init
to prevent reading it from non-privileged users, nor any reason to
remove the 'x' bit as the first thing the program does is check the
uid and exit if it is not run by root.
Instead (and this is why i make the change), mode 500 prevents
operation when exporting the partition without -maproot=0 to diskless
clients.
All previuos releases are affected by the same problem, so a merge
to RELENG_6 at least would be appropriate (after proper re@ approval
of course).
- Use more ``const''s where suitable.
- Define strk() as a static function in global scope.
This avoids the "nested extern declaration" warnings.
- Use static initialization of strings, rather than
referring string constants through char *.
- Bump WARNS from 0 to 6.
to PRECIOUSLIB from bsd.lib.mk. The side effect of this
is making installing the world under jail(8) possible by
using another knob, NOFSCHG.

/etc/rc started with "daemon" settings.
"window=" started with "default" settings
gettys started with "default" settings.
This should open the way to junk kernel options MAX_{OPEN,CHILD}
and the corresponding sysctl vars.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
