consider it a exit failure if it doesn't work. This means that root
processes can safely get the lock, but normal processes can still use
the 'pw' utility to get information (which may change out from under
them.)
from PR/6787, but allow non-root users to use pw to get password
information. However, this should be safe since the fixes for
disallowing multiple instances from modifying the DB are still intact.

for building and installing a local sendmail.cf..
I'm a little nervous about the implications of having an obj dir built
under etc (to get to the obj dir for sendmail), but the make rules appear
to DTRT.
This needs to be revisited - we need a simple way of building/installing
these at runtime from the installed system's /etc/mail directory.
freebsd.mc,v and freefall.mc,v have been repository copied here.
in the behavior via the previously default #define DONT_FSYNC, use the
-s flag to turn the fsync() behavior on. This can be configured in
sendmail.cf without recompiling mail.local.
support, which need a final "\n". I only observed one line of
mangled output, but I think there is another one which suffers
from the same problem, and thus I provide a patch that covers
both.

interrupts which now defers them until the transmit queue if filled
up with completed buffers. This has two advantages: first, it reduces
the number of transmitter interrupts to just 1/120th of the rate
that they occured previously, and two, running down many buffers
at once has much improved cache effects.
- ppbus now supports PLIP via the if_plip driver
- ieee1284 infrastructure added, including parallel-port PnP
- port microsequencer added, for scripting the sort of port I/O
that is common with parallel devices without endless calls up and down
through the driver structure.
- improved bus ownership behaviour among the ppbus-using drivers.
- improved I/O chipset feature detection
The vpo driver is now implemented using the microsequencer, leading to
some performance improvements as well as providing an extensive example
of its use.
