are a really nasty interface that should have been killed long ago
when 'ptrace(PT_[SG]ETREGS' etc came along. The entity that they
operate on (struct user) will not be around much longer since it
is part-per-process and part-per-thread in a post-KSE world.
gdb does not actually use this except for the obscure 'info udot'
command which does a hexdump of as much of the child's 'struct user'
as it can get. It carries its own #defines so it doesn't break
compiles.

Log:
Fix the install kernel on a 1.44MB floppy again.
I had to be aggressively Draconian to succeed.
I diked out:
+ Multia, NoName, PC/EB 64, Aspen Alpine support.
+ SCSI tape support
+ AMI MegaRAID controller support
+ All parallel bus support (includes PLIP)
+ vx (3c590, 3c595), pcn (AMD Am79C97x PCI 10/100), sf (Adaptec AIC-6915),
sis (SiS 900/SiS 7016), ste (Sundance ST201 (D-Link DFE-550TX)),
wb (Winbond W89C840F) support.
bypass some extra anti-foot-shooting measures. Currently, its only
effect is to allow detaching a device while it's still open (e.g.,
mounted). This is useful for testing how the system reacts to a disk
suddenly going away, which can happen with some removeable media.
At this point, the force option is only checked on detach, so it
would've been possible to allow the option to be passed with the
MDIOCDETACH operation. This was not done to allow the possibility of
having the force flag influence other tests in the future, which may
not necessarily deal with detaching the device.

Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the
entire enclosed block.
post-install config, reduce the potential confusion from the existence
of both configTTYs and configTtys by renaming configTTYs to
configEtcTtys. While this is not a C naming conflict, it was probably
a poor choice of names on my part.
