IPX folks a fighting chance of figuring this out themselves. I can't
work out how to document this carefully in rc.conf(5), but this ought
to close the PR.

SUPFLAGS when a 'make update' is run. This means that the supfile
doesn't need to be edited because the -h will override the
CHANGE_THIS.FreeBSD.org host.
Beyond changes to the build system, this includes fixing up the sample
freebsd.mc configuration for changes in defaults and syntax, removing
outdated documentation, and updating the release notes.
it lives in /usr/bin. Instead, locate files manually.
Note, only *files* under /var/spool/lock are now deleted rather
than everything that's not a directory. I think this is more
correct, but if anyone disagrees please feel free to change it.
Problem pointed out by: bde
Make sysinstall override this on install, so the effective behavioural
change for a newly installed system is null. Overall, this makes a system
with an empty /etc/rc.conf not run any network services, and makes the
FreeBSD-provided network services that are running visible in /etc/rc.conf
(instead of making people look through /etc/defaults/rc.conf to find the
things they need to disable to secure the system.)

build process in too many cases. Adding mtree to bootstrap-tools
to solve this breaks the upgrade path because mtree needs a
libc that has strtofflags and fflagstostr.
The tap driver is used to present a virtual Ethernet interface to the
system. Packets presented by the network stack to the interface are
made available to a character device in /dev. With tap and the bridge
code, you can make remote bridge configurations where both sides of
the bridge are separated by userland daemons.
This driver also has a special naming hack to allow it to serve a similar
purpose to the vmware port.

NOTE - this has no hope of working if you halt(); you need to
execute rc.shutdown to get the entropy stash.
- Remove unit numbers in config lines.
- Remove all of logger lines and add logstr lines for some cards. This
changes reduced file size from 84k to 45k.
- Use '/sbin/ifconfig $device delete' instead of /etc/pccard_ether_remove

- Cosmetic changes.
