o Add comments in some places to clarify some points.
o Don't typedef sc_p. This isn't usually done in the drivers and may
cause problems in teh future if C goes the C++ route of requiring
one and only one definition for each and every type. Instead use
the current convetion of expanding struct ${1}_softc * inline needed.
o change some comments to be more style(9)-like.
o Define and use DEV2SOFTC to encapsulate storing/getting softc from a
dev_t. This also takes care of the missing cast from the examples.
o Define and use DEVICE2SOFTC, similar to DEV2SOFTC for getting the
softc from a device_t.

We still should have this generate foo_{isa,pci,pccard,cardbus,eisa}.c
and foovar.h from templates of some sort, but I was too lazy to do
that in this commit. I did document it in the comments, however.
Note: bde-like corrections made with the help of my my portable
plastic bde icon. Results with the real bde may vary with use.
ENABLE_SUID_SSH being defined reenable it for those that want it.
This follows discussion favoring the change from September. It
is not usually necessary to be setuid root, possibly less safe,
and less convenient (cannot use $HOSTALIASES, for example).

I have added support for finding non-PNP devices to this
sample loadable ISA driver.
PCI support will come later.
If someone with a clue about newbus were to look it over it would be
really cool.
This creates a skeleton ISA device driver.
I don't pretend that it's fully correct or even opitimal
but it at least creates (and compiles) a 'clean' ISA driver.
Hopefully PCI/PCCARD/etc. support will be added when I understand it.
Unlike the old version this just creates a module. The old one tried to
create a new kernel with the driver to be tested.
Replace all in-tree uses with necessary subset of <sys/{fb,kb,cons}io.h>.
This is also the appropriate fix for exo-tree sources.
Put warnings in <machine/console.h> to discourage use.
November 15th 2000 the warnings will be converted to errors.
January 15th 2001 the <machine/console.h> files will be removed.

Now that the RSA algorithm is released into the public domain, build
librsaintl by default unless NO_RSAINTL is set in make.conf.
The native OpenSSL implementation of RSA is much faster, doesn't have
an artificial keysize limitation, has 30% fewer calories and tastes great!
configure FreeBSD so that various databases such as passwd and group can be
looked up using flat files, NIS, or Hesiod.
= Hesiod has been added to libc (see hesiod(3)).
= A library routine for parsing nsswitch.conf and invoking callback
functions as specified has been added to libc (see nsdispatch(3)).
= The following C library functions have been modified to use nsdispatch:
. getgrent, getgrnam, getgrgid
. getpwent, getpwnam, getpwuid
. getusershell
. getaddrinfo
. gethostbyname, gethostbyname2, gethostbyaddr
. getnetbyname, getnetbyaddr
. getipnodebyname, getipnodebyaddr, getnodebyname, getnodebyaddr
= host.conf has been removed from src/etc. rc.network has been modified
to warn that host.conf is no longer used at boot time. In addition, if
there is a host.conf but no nsswitch.conf, the latter is created at boot
time from the former.

stay broken for months without anyone noticing.
The boot-conf command was changed as to reproduce the behavior of builtin
loader words precisely. As a result, it now always need an argument, possibly
0 indicating that no other arguments are being passed. This broke in a
non-deterministic way (ie, it could go on working as if everything was fine).
