c80816df35 Document the tunable kern.ipc.nsfbufs in help.common and loader.8. Small
nearby grammar fixup that saves a line of display while in the loader
(help set tunables), but reuses the line for kern.ipc.nsfbufs.

f9c71e51d9 FreeBSD 5.0 has stopped shipping /modules 2.5 years ago. Catch
up with this further by excluding /modules from the (default)
kern.module_path.

087c82acdb Some more i386-only BIOS-friendliness:
- Add support for using the PCI BIOS functions for configuration space
   accesses, and make this the default.

 - Make PNPBIOS the default (obsoletes the PNPBIOS config option).

 - Add two new boot-time tunables to disable each of the above.

755c131c9f Make use of prototypes to silence warnings.
Change include() so it will be able to load files with forth code,
instead of just builtins. Remove #@- from the include section of the
help file, since they don't work in the new version of include, unless
BOOT_FORTH is not defined.

Change bf_run() so it will return the result returned by ficlExec(). Also,
make bf_run() push "interpret" to be executed by ficlExec(), since ficlExec()
doesn't do it by itself. (Things worked previously because nothing
recursed through ficlExec() by the way of bf_run()).

Change/extend comments on builtin behavior.

Search for "interpret" at the end of bf_init(), so /boot/boot.4th can
provide it's own version.

Remove dead code.

fa6b76178f Document the machdep.pccard.pcic_irq tunable, which allows the user to tune
the interrupt which will be given to the PCIC.  If the value supplied is
illegal or not available, interrupts will be turned off and polled mode
used instead.

interp.c
	Rename the 'source' command to 'include' in order to avoid conflict
	with the ANS Forth command of the same name. (kern/9473)

interp_forth.c:
	Changes from kern/9412 (EXCEPTION word), kern/9442 (TIB buffer
	sizing) and an improved version of kern/9460 (set
	version numbers).

load_aout.c:
	Trim some obsolete #if 0'ed cruft.

pnp.c:
	Tidy the pnpscan output, turn off the module scanning until we
	sort out how to do it right.

27a325f105 - Add a new command 'lsdev' to list devices which might be likely to host
filesystems.
 - New 'help' command and data in the help.* files (not yet installed),
   provides topic and subtopic help, indexes, etc.
 - Don't crash if the user tries to set an invalid console.  Be helpful
   instead.
 - Expand tabs (badly) on the i386 video console.
 - Some minor cosmetic changes.
