1597fa8dfe Remove, with extreme prejudice, the notion that /tmp best needs to be a 
softlink to /var/tmp.

This is horribly wrong since /tmp and /var/tmp serve different goals.
Even given the text that in the old days things were different doesn't help,
since our scripts clean /tmp, and we depend on /var/tmp to persist for
vi editing sessions recovery and other likewise applications.

29d0d30996 Update the default newfs block and fragment sizes from 8192/1024 to 
16384/2048.

Following recent discussions on the -arch mailing list, involving dillon
and mckusick, this change parallels the one made over a decade ago when
the default was bumped up from 4096/512.

This should provide significant performance improvements for most
folks, less significant performance losses for a few folks and
wasted space lost to large fragments for many folks.

For discussion, please see the following thread in the -arch archive:

reboots.

Also add a `NOTES' section that reminds the reader that this man page
just documents the system default, and that the hierarchy of a given
site is at the system administrators discretion.

1b28c0b357 Move /etc/defaults/make.conf to /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf as 
discussed on the arch@ mailinglist (after repo-copy).

sys.mk will .error if it finds /etc/defaults/make.conf but include
it anyways (this is the same behaviour as with the make.conf.local
removal).

/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf has BDEFLAGS commented out now,
since it's only an example file.

Adjust all textes that talk about make.conf or defaults/make.conf to
match the new situation.

with each other in the headers they list and they order they list
them in.

Note:  this is the preferred ordering.  All new man pages/additions
to man pages should try and follow this.  Existing man pages
should be left alone, unless you are making major changes  in
the man page and re-ordering of the sections is only a
minor part of the change.
