   <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=kevent&manpath=OpenBSD%20Current&sektion=2&format=html">kevent(2)</a> now releases the file reference on the kqueue, so that closing the descriptor doesn't result in a deadlock (reported in NetBSD PR 46248). Fixes some threaded ports.
   <li>In string.h, some prototype conditionals are adjusted to match POSIX: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=strsignal&manpath=OpenBSD%20Current&sektion=3&format=html">strsignal(3)</a> is in POSIX-2008; <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=strerror_r&manpath=OpenBSD%20Current&sektion=3&format=html">strerror_r(3)</a> is in the base of POSIX-2001, without an XSI qualifier.
   <li>Mips64 cache handling routines were moved out of cpu.h to cache.h. Common <code>CACHE_</code> prefixes introduced; integer types used to represent addresses changed from <code>vaddr_t</code> to <code>uint64_t</code>.
   <li>On mips64 a regression caused by the recently changed behaviour of calculating <code>CpuCacheAliasMask</code> is fixed.
