f0fbc30e0d Introduce the PRECIOUSPROG knob in bsd.prog.mk, similar
to PRECIOUSLIB from bsd.lib.mk.  The side effect of this
is making installing the world under jail(8) possible by
using another knob, NOFSCHG.

0caca34c52 Fix for the following behavior:
$ crontab -e
[Add an entry with an error in the crontab file.]
crontab: errors in crontab file, can't install
Do you want to retry the same edit? yes
[Exit the editor without any changes.]
crontab: no changes made to crontab
[Entry is lost.]

Now crontab will loop until the error is fixed, or the
user answers no.

ae09cae939 Add two new options to cron(8), -J and -j. They allow to specify
the maximum amount of time jitter for root and other users, respectively.
Before starting a job, cron(8) will sleep a random number of seconds,
from 0 to the amount specified.  This can help to smooth down load spikes
when a lot of jobs are to start at the beginning of a particular minute
(e.g., the first minute of an hour.)

9cfc3cad44 Never allow a user to use crontab if opening /var/cron/{allow,deny} fails
for any reason other than ENOENT (think resource limits). Close allow and
deny files before allowed() returns to stop the user's EDITOR being able to
read them.

9ace91bc72 load_env(), the function that attempts to parse a crontab
line as an environment variable assignment, is broken
and not conformant to its description in the manual page.

I think it is worthwhile to have that fix in 4.6.

cb0776eac7 free_entry(): Don't free e->envp if it's already NULL; likewise for
e->cmd.  free_entry() now does the right thing with
partially-initialized structures.

load_entry(): Don't call env_free() on e->envp throughout the routine
before jumping to eof; the free_entry() call at that label will take
care of it.  The previous behavior resulted in e->envp being free'd
twice (well, the second time would usually result in a crash, but
that's besides the point); once in load_entry(), and once in
free_entry() after the former called the latter.  Also note that the
check added to free_entry() (above) doesn't help, since e->envp wasn't
reset to NULL after env_free().
