/sbin to /usr/sbin. A symlink from /sbin/nologin -> /usr/sbin/nologin

This will probably not cause any problems, but anyone who is doing
anything particularly unusual with nologin(8) or shells in general might
be well advised to check that everything still works.
Bikesheds on: cvs-all, current
On vnode backed md(4) devices over a certain, currently undetermined
size relative to the buffer cache our "lemming-syncer" can provoke
a buffer starvation which puts the md thread to sleep on wdrain.
This generally tends to grind the entire system to a stop because the
event that is supposed to wake up the thread will not happen until a fair
bit of the piled up I/O requests in the system finish, and since a lot
of those are on a md(4) vnode backed device which is currently waiting
on wdrain until a fair amount of the piled up ... you get the picture.
The cure is to issue all VOP_WRITES on the vnode backing the device
with IO_SYNC.
In addition to more closely emulating a real disk device with a
non-lying write-cache, this makes the writes exempt from rate-limited
(there to avoid starving the buffer cache) and consequently prevents
the deadlock.
Unfortunately performance takes a hit.
Add "async" option to give people who know what they are doing the
old behaviour.
- Add DECL wrappers to libgeom.h.
- Rename structure members in libgeom.h to use a lg_ prefix for member
names. This is required because a few structures had members named
'class' which made g++ very unhappy.
- Catch gstat(8) and gconcat(8) up to these API changes.

This adds the former ports registered groups: proxy and authpf as well as
the proxy user. Make sure to run mergemaster -p in oder to complete make
installworld without errors.
This also provides the passive OS fingerprints from OpenBSD (pf.os) and an
example pf.conf.
For those who want to go without pf; it provides a NO_PF knob to make.conf.
__FreeBSD_version will be bumped soon to reflect this and to be able to
change ports accordingly.

that this provokes. "Wherever possible" means "In the kernel OR NOT
C++" (implying C).
There are places where (void *) pointers are not valid, such as for
function pointers, but in the special case of (void *)0, agreement
settles on it being OK.
Most of the fixes were NULL where an integer zero was needed; many
of the fixes were NULL where ascii <nul> ('\0') was needed, and a
few were just "other".

- bzero the CCB header in getdevtree() and set the path properly, to
avoid having random garbage in the CCB header.
- if the lun isn't specified in a device specifier, it should default to
0, not whatever random data happens to be in the lun variable.
- move the prototype for getdevtree() out from under #ifndef MINIMALISTIC,
since it is used in both cases.

libexec/ftp-proxy - ftp proxy for pf
sbin/pfctl - equivalent to sbin/ipf
sbin/pflogd - deamon logging packets via if_pflog in pcap format
usr.sbin/authpf - authentification shell to modify pf rulesets
Bring along some altq headers used to satisfy pfctl/authpf compile. This
helps to keep the diff down and will make it easy to have a altq-patchset
use the full powers of pf.
Also make sure that the pf headers are installed.
This does not link anything to the build. There will be a NO_PF switch for
make.conf once pf userland is linked.

that ext2fs in the kernel supports async mounts. ext2fs used to
effectively force the -async flag on. -async for ext2fs only gives
async (more precisely, delayed) writes for inode updates, so it is
barely worth using even when it is safe.
