symbols from object files has bitrotted over the last
thirteen years, and it now does more harm than good.
An attempt to work around the problems caused by using
ld(1) for stripping was to pass LDFLAGS to the ld(1)
command, but this was not right either as ${LDFLAGS}
should, by design, be used with cc(1) and not ld(1).
One of the proposed solutions was to use the objcopy(1)
utility to do the strip work, and the other would be to
use strip(1), but Bruce Evans suggested not stripping
any symbols at all. This works by leaving the grunt
work to the final strip(1) command (when installing the
binary).

components. This is generally considered a non-optimal solution but
it gets the job done for the /rescue case.

This commit has two pieces. One half is the watchdog kernel code which lives
primarily in hardclock() in sys/kern/kern_clock.c. The other half is a userland
daemon which, when run, will keep the watchdog from firing while the userland
is intact and functioning.

The matcd.4 man page has been upgraded to reflect current 5.1.x
functionality, and efforts were made to match the style and layout found
in similar-single purpose block drivers man pages found in the 5.1 tree
man4 area while not losing useful information. However, the documentation
folks should still take a look, since the man pages used as guides were
somewhat inconsistent on a variety of points.

Remove a reference to the defunct macro M_COPY_PKTHDR;
document the new functions m_dup_pkthdr() and m_move_pkthdr(),
and the macro variant of the latter, M_MOVE_PKTHDR().
- tagging plaintext "mbuf", "mbuf cluster", and "mbuf chain"
with .Vt (variable type) since all of them are ways of managing
data, i.e., they can be seen as data types;
- using .Vt/.Va instead of .Li (literal) where appropriate;
- tagging plaintext words that actually refer to function arguments
with .Fa.

uses alloca() and alloca is impossible to implement as a callable function
on amd64. It has to be a compiler builtin. Note that the bigger problem
is that libc is not c99 clean internally.
bus_dmamap_sync() by OR'ing them together.
- Don't document what BUS_DMASYNC_PREREAD|BUS_DMASYNC_PREWRITE and
BUS_DMASYNC_POSTREAD|BUS_DMASYNC_POSTWRITE is supposed to do when
passed to bus_dmamap_sync(). There are other possible combinations
and the reader just needs to know what the individual flags do and
that he can combine different DMA operations.
- Use .An when listing authors.

man page. This will be more scaleable as more driver man pages hit
the tree. Add also a description on how to do this configuration
in the rc.conf script.
