kernels specified by KERNCONF are built and packed into release.
The first one is packed into kernel.txz, all others to
kernel.CONFIG.txz.
The first one is installed on bootables in /boot.
The fix involved adding a proper build of ld-elf.so.1 ,
and also replacing ldd with objdump (suggested by Garrett Cooper)
to build the list of shared libraries needed by the binaries
and libraries on the target.

o boot/mfsroot.gz is no more. Copy it only when it exists so as still
to be compatible with Makefile.sysinstall.
o while here, make ispfw.ko optional as well.
o '-b bootimage' is not a valid argument for makefs. What was meant
was '-o bootimage'.
o create the boot image in the current directory so that makefs can

that's how mkisofs wanted it.
so that running make release causes make obj to be run before doing
anything. This fixes a bug wherein, when run for the first time, and
without -DNOSRC, make release would attempt to recursively tar up the src
directory including its own output and enter an infinite loop.
While here, make the cross-building stuff work a little more the way it
should if only one of TARGET/TARGET_ARCH is specified.
Some files keep the SUN4V tags as a code reference, for the future,
if any rewamped sun4v support wants to be added again.

it isn't being integrated into 'make release' because for the forseeable
future the memstick images will be identical to what's on the DVD except

from what's on the DVD it would make more sense to generate a "memstick"

checkout. If SVNROOT is specified, then the source tree will be checked
out from that SVN repository instead of using CVS. ports and docs still
use CVS. If SVNROOT is not specified, then the source tree will be checked
out using CVS. An explicit SVN branch can be specified using SVNBRANCH
(e.g. SVNBRANCH=stable/8). If SVNBRANCH is not set but RELEASETAG is set
to a CVS branch (such as RELENG_8) the appropriate SVN branch will be
inferred from the CVS branch using svnbranch.awk.
Note that there are still several open questions about using SVN instead
of CVS in the release process. However, this does enable one to build a
release from an SVN repository if needed.
