00c5ffa497 Change time_t from a 32-bit value to a 64-bit value, on FreeBSD/sparc64
only.  This is a  MAJOR  incompatible change for the sparc64 platform,
but will not effect FreeBSD on other architectures.

Reviewed by:	imp for UPDATING, freebsd-sparc for the change itself.

17cd066bca Have these instructions tell users to 'sh installworld_newk' instead
of './installworld_newk', because the scripts might not show up with
the +x bit set.

631c9d292f Commit the first set of files for changing time_t on freebsd/sparc64
from a 32-bit value to a 64-bit value.  This commit does not actually
change anything.  It merely provides instructions, scripts, and a safety
measure in Makefile.inc1 for people who want to make the change.

The real change to 64-bit time_t's on sparc64 is scheduled to happen
on March 10th, assuming that so major problems are found between now
and then by early-adopters.
