8fd137c6b5 Document the `new' fdesc--now that it belongs only on /dev/fd, remove all
non-/dev/fd related documentation (such as that for stdin, stdout, tty).

Update the fstab line to refer to /dev/fd instead of /dev.

a5a543c27b Back out the hook to execute the file ${firewall_type}. The intended
purpose of the hook was to provide the ability for a shell program to
instantiate the firewall rules instead of forcing them to be
statically coded.  This functionality was already present through the
use of ${firewall_script}, and I see no need to keep the
${firewall_type} hook around.

d7295a1a39 Add a sysctl to specify the amount of UDP receive space NFS should
reserve, in maximal NFS packets.  Originally only 2 packets worth of
    space was reserved.  The default is now 4, which appears to greatly
    improve performance for slow to mid-speed machines on gigabit networks.

    Add documentation and correct some prior documentation.

88dd9b4faa Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.

PR:		bin/16207

Note: there is still a groff problem with Y2K that needs to be fixed,
so the PR is still valid.
