   The following list sums up (almost) all the changes made up to October 17.
   <p>
   
 <ul>  <ul>
   <li>Improved media support and a boundary check fix for <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=wi&sektion=4">wi(4)</a>.
   <li>Have <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=route&sektion=8">route(8)</a> correctly interpret -prefixlen 32 (or 128 for IPv6) network as a host route.
   <li>Enable uvm_tree_sanity() check #ifdef DEBUG.
   <li>Fix a potential null deref in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=route&sektion=8">route(8)</a>'s arguments parser.
   <li>Renumber <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ch&sektion=4">ch(4)</a> CHIO* ioctls. Old definitions renamed to OCHIO*, binary backwards compatibility will be left in intact until post-3.3.
   <li>Teach <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=kdump&sektion=1">kdump(1)</a> to print AUDIO_* ioctls, and add a few missing syscall defines.
   <li>Support <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=fxp&sektion=4">fxp(4)</a> on big-endian architectures.
   <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a> allows protocols to be specified by a (valid) protocol number.
   <li>Add a missing free() in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pflogd&sektion=8">pflogd(8)</a>.

   <li>For positively POSIX reasons, implement <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=isfdtype&sektion=3">isfdtype(3)</a>.
   <li>Bring <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pax&sektion=1">pax(1)</a>'s date handling code back into sync with that in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=date&sektion=1">date(1)</a>. Four digit years parse now.
   <li>Start to break out machine-dependent parts of <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=MAKEDEV&sektion=8">MAKEDEV(8)</a> into separate files.
   <li>Send <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ksh&sektion=1">ksh</a>.kshrc label() and ilable() output to /dev/tty insted of stdout, so command output streams doesn't get messed up.
   <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=systrace&sektion=1">systrace(1)</a> supports system call-granularity privilege elevation!

   <li>Remove the setuid bit from <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=login&sektion=1">login(1)</a>. If run with a non-root euid, it invokes <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=su&sektion=1">su(1)</a> with the new -L flag.
   <li>Add '-L' flag to <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=su&sektion=1">su(1)</a> to make it work like <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=login&sektion=1">login(1)</a>.

   <!-- ^ 20021014 -->
   <li>Remove a potential null pointer deref in BSD authentication code.
   <li>Fix a bad printf format string in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ftpd&sektion=8">ftpd(8)</a>. Non-critical because it's only ever fed by parts of the authentication system which sanitise the input first.

   <li>Teach ALTQ CBQ the <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a> API. The old API remains for now.
