of being able to use Gzip'ed distributions.

check that the pointer passed to them is valid; if it isn't, they
pretend that the action failed. This fixes some crashes due to NULL
dereferences (e.g., PR 26509).

them.
Sysinstall used to check /var/run/ld.so.hints (aout related) and create
hints with the ldconfig command, but the ldconfig command alone will
generate elf hints only. The correct behavior is:
* If /var/run/ld-elf.so.hints does not exist, generate elf hints
* If /var/run/ld.so.hints does not exist, generate aout hints
(using ldconfig with the -aout option)
This will help ports that check for aout libraries using ldconfig in their
pkg-req scripts.

MFC after: 1 weeks
Paxson et al, Status: Informational, May 1998), we should use "bits per

o Allow use of "G" in label editor to stand for gigabytes. This
is actually an unrelated patch which I meant to commit separately
but what the heck, it's late.

as redoing all the menus to have proper, or at least non-hallucinogenic,
keyboard accelerators.
This requires my recent update to libdialog to work properly and will
probably also exhibit some other "interesting" behavior while the last
few missing screen clears are found (which is why I'm not going to MFC
immediately). At least now, however, sysinstall does not gratuitously
redraw random screens at the drop of a hat and drive serial console
installers out of their minds.
I backed-out the changes in -current and didn't touch stable at all (I
thought I had my patch order reversed, not what actually happened).
AIEEE! I can't even blame the crack for this one since I broke my
crack pipe a few weeks ago. I think sleep deprivation gets the blame
for this one.
Medal for noticing this one goes to: Jim Bloom <bloom@acm.org>
bringing in DHCP support. The only thing I left out were Poul-Henning's
newfs changes since I'm not sure if he's brought the rest of that support
into -stable yet. If it turns out that this is the case, I'll MFC those
changes too.

o Collapse some redundant code.
o Fix typo'd menu.
o Restrict searches properly to packages rather than categories.
o Small tweaks to signal handling.
All RELENG_3 candidates.
I simply forgot that I'd already proven this to be a "really good idea that
unfortunately didn't work at all" the *last* time I tried it. Now
I remember. Hmmm. I WILL defeat this evil problem.
feature of packages now so that no version info is embedded.
o Add a default X desktop menu offering afterstep, enlightenment, KDE, GNOME
and Windowmaker desktops instead of the boring twm(1) based one if the
user so chooses. This will require a little testing.
Now we know which variables are internal and which need to be
backed to /etc/rc.conf.site. rc.conf is not touched now.
Also kget kernel change information back properly and set up a loader.rc
file to use it.
so that we're more useful in multi-user mode. This is still not
100%, but it pulls in a lot more than it used to. Some of the "composite"
variables in /etc/sysconfig are going to take more work.
o Always write /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts if it makes sense to do
so.
o Reset media properly when reselecting. Longstanding bogon.
o Pull SIGPIPE handling out of package.c; I'm actually hoping to handle
this differently shortly.
o Fix bug where cancel in TCP setup dialog still checked data fields.
I think this closes a PR, but I will have to go look.
