condition variables, per-thread errno, symbol binding, and

ktracing when rthreads are in use.

handling for rthreads.

<li>Small improvements to Linux compat (only available on i386).

<li>Over 7,000 ports, major performance and stability improvements in

the package build process

<li>downloading of distfiles is simpler, can resume interrupted download,

<li>Downloading of distfiles is simpler, can resume interrupted download,

discover file moves, and expire old files. Distfiles mirror sites now use

the new and improved method.

<li>dependency handling during ports build and package creation is at least

<li>Dependency handling during ports build and package creation is at least

twice as fast, twenty times as fast in pathological cases. This also affects

user scripts such as out-of-date

<li>more checks are done during package builds, for increased user friendliness

<li>the long term process of documenting the infrastructure is now 100% done.

<li>The long term process of documenting the infrastructure is now 100% done.

<li>The distributed ports builder (dpb) can now clean up old dependencies,

thus helping package builds be more reproducible.

This found tens of hidden build dependencies in the ports tree already.

<li>The arch-dependent issues are better classified, leading to better builds on

old architectures in some complicated cases. In particular, dpb explicitly

purges from memory info about packages it cannot build and stuff that

depends on it, leading to better life on sparc and vax which have very
