might be. Note also that the current more liberal permissions might
get changed in future revisions.

sys.mk will .error if it finds /etc/defaults/make.conf but include
it anyways (this is the same behaviour as with the make.conf.local
removal).
/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf has BDEFLAGS commented out now,
since it's only an example file.
Adjust all textes that talk about make.conf or defaults/make.conf to
match the new situation.
value, it forces GCC to not optimize above this level. For intance, GCC
made with "WANT_FORCE_OPTIMIZATION_DOWNGRADE=1" is a good setting for the
Alpha platform when building ports.
rc.firewall6. Specifically, don't do anything
if [ -z ${source_rc_confs_defined} ]. Not doing this leads to a problem
with dependencies: chkdepend will set, e.g., portmap_enable to YES if
some service that needs portmap is enabled, but rc.network sources
rc.firewall, which used to source defaults/rc.conf unconditionally,
which would result in portmap_enable being set back to NO.

and ftpd. This more conservative default reduces the exposure of
freshly installed machines, which is especially valuable for machines
that receive minimal further configuration before being put into
production. Generally speaking, SSH has superseded the use of both
telnet and ftp in many environments. In light of recent remotely
exploitable security holes in both telnetd and ftpd, this choice
retains flexibility (both telnetd and ftpd daemons remain installed
and easily enableable) while protecting users who don't need the
additional risk. This change brings our configuration into line with
the majority of other UNIX vendors, including OpenBSD and NetBSD.
To address the concerns of those requiring remote access via telnet
from first install, changes will shortly be committed to sysinstall
to provide the ability to edit inetd.conf during the installation
process, allowing telnetd and ftp to be re-enabled during the
installation process.
While I'm at it, slightly improve commenting for inetd.conf so that
it's more clear to users how to enable and disable services.
Further commenting to indicate the functions of various columns would
probably also be useful.

us anyway because it doesn't work right on the x86 and alpha. On
K&R code, small ints would be promoted to int. ANSI-C doesn't require
this and the small ints can be passed taking 8 or 16 bits of stack
space. However, the x86 abi that we use *does* promote to 32 bit,
and the alpha ABI passes them in 64 bit registers so we dont have
that aspect of the problem here. Losing float precision by having it
cast down to int because the funtion prototype specifies int is the
least of our problems. -Wmissing-prototypes helps here anyway.
