/stand/etc on the mfsroot, and hence to /etc on the install target
disk for use during the install. It also links netconfig and services
into /etc on the mfsroot so that they are available to a fixit
shell.

the commit logs - I just found the reason for the self-pointing symlink, as
documented in revision 1.517 by phk, who committed the change over a year
ago. Accordingly, put the feature back and drop all plans to MFC the previous
"fix".
asking what it's for and I can't answer since I can't see any conceivable
use for it. Unless someone corrects that impression, I'll also MFC this
change in a few days.
commands to build sysinstall manually during release.
- Get the sysinstall help files from /usr/src/usr.sbin/sysinstall/help
rather than ${.CURDIR}/sysinstall/help.
one-way hash functions for authentication purposes. There is no more
"set the libcrypt->libXXXcrypt" nightmare.
- Undo the libmd.so hack, use -D to hide the md5c.c internals.
- Remove the symlink hacks in release/Makefile
- the algorthm is set by set_crypt_format() as before. If this is
not called, it tries to heuristically figure out the hash format, and
if all else fails, it uses the optional auth.conf entry to chose the
overall default hash.
- Since source has non-hidden crypto in it there may be some issues with
having the source it in some countries, so preserve the "secure/*"
division. You can still build a des-free libcrypt library if you want
to badly enough. This should not be a problem in the US or exporting
from the US as freebsd.org had notified BXA some time ago. That makes
this stuff re-exportable by anyone.
- For consistancy, the default in absence of any other clues is md5. This
is to try and minimize POLA across buildworld where folk may suddenly
be activating des-crypt()-hash support. Since the des hash may not
always be present, it seemed sensible to make the stronger md5 algorithm
the default.
All things being equal, no functionality is lost.

The distribute target is basicly the same as an install. For
perl, this means that miniperl is needed. Since miniperl is
only present in the object directory, we need to make sure
the path is set correctly. To do this, we have make release
use a new distribworld target that sets the path before doing
a make distribute.
overwriting $PATH, and find mknod $PATH instead of hardcoding /sbin so
that the copy of MAKEDEV on the fixit floppy is usable, since mknod and
expr live in /mnt2/stand when the fixit floppy is running.
Get rid of the sed invokation in release/Makefile that attempts to
delete the PATH setting stuff from MAKEDEV on the fixit floppy. This
hasn't worked since a long ago change to MAKEDEV caused the sed
expression to no longer match.

mimics that of tcpdump in that for normal builds, sendmail will only be
built once. For 'make release', it is built once for the bin dist and
once for the crypto dist. This method also removes the need for two separate
Makefiles (which could become out of sync).

kernel config file.
- Add WORLD_FLAGS and KERNEL_FLAGS so you can build world and kernel with
extra make options such as -jX to speed up release builds.
- When building kernels, allow their hints to tag along, and use this to
install hints onto the boot floppy. Since the boot floppy doesn't load
loader.4th, we have to change device.hints to strip comments and change
each line to an explicit set command.
