   <li>Make dd(1) work fine with our 64-bit off_t types, now you can copy very

   <li>add RPC service name generation to netstat -a
   <li>Upgrade pax & tar to be POSIX compliant.
   <li>Fix a few netinet kernel crash problems.
   <li>Fix so that stack limits which are not a multiple of the pagesize work.
   <li>fix some more memory and file descriptor leaks in libc/rpc
   <li>New cpu scalable BLOWFISH-based crypt algorithm for passwd file entries;
           uses a very large strong-random `salt' and permits expansion of
           the number of rotor runs.  Hence if you have faster machines you can
           slow the crypt routine down!

           be created when a user uses passwd(1)
