otherwise the machine will overflow the stack in a recursive fault loop
(causing the machine to spontaneously reboot because of the stack fault
that ultimately happens).
Submitted by: Inspired by Bruce Evans, but this change is different
than what he suggested.

These are the FAQ files, reorganized a bit and updated marginally for 2.0.
There is *still more work to be done* in updating, so if some of your FAQ text
is below, please check it over! We've also got a lot of FAQ entries still
to write (examples: "how do I upgrade?" "what's new in 2.0?" "how do I
install on a notebook/second drive/from DOS/etc etc etc?"
1. DISTFILE is gone and replaced by DISTFILES, which can contain one or
more file specifications.
2. MASTER_SITE created, which points to the distfiles directory on
freebsd.cdrom.com (which I'll set up in a moment).
3. HOME_LOCATION is now simply a hint, and is never directly used except
to inform the user when ncftp unable to transfer a file from
MASTER_SITE.
4. ncftp is now assumed to live somewhere in the path, in preparation for
Andrew bringing it in on a more permanant basis.
5. XMKMF defined - it was not before.
Thanks to Andrew (ache) for many helpful suggestions.
- Makefile changes (manual installation)
- (hwaddr.c rtmsg.c) Do setting of arp cache entries by writing to
routing socket, rather than by calling arp(8).

another place option !defined(DISKLABEL_UNPROTECTED) was needed.
has no effect now, and MROUTING should never be defined by default.
(Eventually the code should be dynamically loadable.)
Also, allow for Pentium CPUs in GENERICBT kernels.
Add an `install' rule to Makefile.i386, which looks like this:
mv /kernel /kernel.old
install -c -m 555 -o root -g root -fschg kernel /
I'd like comments on whether or not you think it's a good idea to have
the kernel be immutable by default; I'm happy either way.
CVS:
place.
Removed mount_pcfs until we have a replacement.
Removed fdisk until it is ported and/or replaced.
Now have to include many more libraries due to /bin/sh changes.
You need to fix the libio/_G_config.h file around lines 42-44. After
that everything should be OK. You should have seen many warning error
messages about this file. There are missing "short" "char" keywords
the file.
Michael:
Apply the following patch
rgrimes:
The patch to include/_G_config.h is highly questionable and has been
marked as such.

you MUST add the directory name and the .. entry to close the directory.
If you do not understand mtree files, do not modify them, it is very
easy to trash someones box with a mistake in here. Especially with
regards to .. entries.
