- Set a two read-only variables (${prefix} and ${etcdir}). This is
especially useful when using /etc/rc.d scripts with third-party
software installed from ports.
- Fix rc.d/sshd to work with openssh from ports using ${etcdir}
instead of hardcoded /etc.
- Reflect prefix/etcdir changes in rc.subr.8.
sysctl_ctx_init.9 from HEAD to RELENG_6:
Add a basic man page for the sysctl(9) macro interfaces. Previously man
pages existed only for the dynamic sysctl interfaces. There's probably
more complete and accurate content, better advice, etc, that could be
added here.
Per scottl's suggest, add a small piece of moralizing text regarding the
fact that sysctl names quickly get embedded in system configuration files,
libraries, third party applications, and even books, so renaming and
removing names after they've been published is a tricky issue.

- Change the "jail_" prefix for internal script variables. This fixes an
issue where some global jail_* variables were overriden in the script. [1]
- Change "jid" to "jname" in rc.conf(5), since it's more a jail name than a
jail id. [1]
- Update examples and comments in defaults/rc.conf to advertise new
variables and the fact that some of the jail-specific variables may be made
jail-global. [2]

- Add default value in /etc/defaults/rc.conf.

Make this example more real world usable: When the manpage first appeared
is not interesting, when the driver appeared is. Most people who use this
example leave the manpage appearance date in and the driver date out.
Add a /media to FreeBSD. /media is a directory designed to contain
subdirectories that will be used for removable media mount points (i.e.
mount points for CDs, floppy disks, USB drives, etc.). While the primary
purpose of /media is to provide a location for HAL
(http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software_2fhal) to mount volumes, it could
be used by any application that needs to manage removable media volumes.
- Spelling/grammar fixes.
- Typo fix: "ing" -> "in".
- Document the EOPNOTSUPP returned by hwpmc(4) if a sampling
mode PMC is requested on a CPU without an APIC.
Bump document date.
- Add following global jail options, used if no jail-specific options are
set:
* jail_mount_enable
* jail_devfs_ruleset
* jail_devfs_enable
* jail_fdescfs_enable
* jail_procfs_enable
* jail_fstab
* jail_flags
- Add a jail_interface / jail_<jid>_interface option. An ip alias will be
created (jail_<jid>_ip) on jail_interface or jail_<jid>_interface if set.
This is not a mandatory option.
- Document all missing jail_* options in rc.conf(5).

The removal of CIRCLEQ left four queue macro families, but one sentence
in the man page wasn't updated.
