+The following list sums up (almost) all the changes made up to October 31.
+
+- Compatibility tweaks to ugen(4) and uhid(4) from NetBSD.
+
- Some ehci(4) fixes from NetBSD.
+
- Add BCM5705K and BCM5750/5751 support to bge(4). From FreeBSD.
+
+
+
- Handle more gracefully corrupt keys in ssh(1) authorised_keys files.
+
- Fix SIGWINCH handling for multiplexed ssh(1) connections.
+
- Switch powerpc to use GCC 3.x.
+
- Import and merge heimdal-0.6.3.
+
- A couple of reliability fixes for dc(4). From FreeBSD.
+
+
- Give carp(4) interfaces their own type, IFT_CARP.
+
- Pass the right type to snprintf(3) in asctime(3) (PR#3970).
+
- Modulate the TCP timestamp by a random value for each connection.
+
- Remove assumption that a destination is on-link if the default router list is empty (RFC2461 §5.2).
+
+
- Updates and fixes to ipw(4) and iwi(4).
+
- Add DWARF-based exception handling support for shlibs and dynamic executables in gcc(1).
+
- Add support for setre[gu]id(2) under Linux emulation.
+
- Use clock_getres(2) to calculate the precision in ntpd(8), and fill in the precision field when sending server-mode responses.
+
+
- In crtbegin, make __register_frame_info() a weak symbol.
+
- In bgpctl(8), try to show the peer description instead of the IP address in 'show summary' view. Revert to IPs with new -n option.
+
- More work on mpt(4).
+
+
- In the ffs code, don't assume a block is allocated if bread(9) or cg_chkmagic() fails.
+
- Change the new getproto*_r(3) and getserv*_r(3) functions' return value to match the IBM/Digital API.
+
+
- Allow rdate(8) to accept replies with an NTP version less than 4.
+
- Minimise the delta with FreeBSD for aic(4), ahc(4) and ahd(4).
+
+
- Start work on update support in pkg_add(1).
+
- Correct some missing braces after an 'if' statement in xl(4).
+
+
- Have ntpd(8) server mode return the stratum of the currently preferred peer plus one.
+
- Add neighbor solicitation/advertisement messages into/out of the default IPv6 pf(4) rulebase loaded by rc(8).
+
+
- Backout the change of amd(8) from select(2) to poll(2) due to problems.
+
- Backport some fixes from lynx-2.8.6dev.7b preventing crashes due to memory exhaustion.
+
- Make the xdm(1) greeter able to use non-default login classes (X.Org bugzilla #1676).
+
+
- Change all the route(8) commands in netstart(8) to use -qn and so not do DNS lookups.
+
- Memleak fixes and cleanup in isakmpd(8).
+
- Merge changes from mod_ssl 2.8.20, fixing CAN-2004-0885.
+ [Applied to stable]
+ - New ipw(4) and iwi(4) drivers, and ipwcontrol(8) and iwicontrol(8) tools, supporting Intel 2100/2200BG/2915ABG wireless devices. Disabled and non-operational due to silly distribution restrictions on the device firmware files.
+
- Support interrupt transfers on USB 2 controllers, allowing the use of USB 2 hubs with USB 2 hardware.
+
- Disconnect ssh(1) sessions on out-of-range message types.
+
+
- Pretty up bgpd(8)'s display of groups.
+
- Allow bgpd(8) neighbor definitions to be dependent on interface state. If used with a carp(4) interface, for example, this can be used to reduce failover time.
+
- Add suspend/resume support to ehci(4).
+
- Add -e command-line expression support to bc(1).
+
- Only set up the default IPv6 pf(4) rules on IPv6-enabled systems.
+
+
- Update timezone data to tz(code|data)2004e from ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/.
+
- Add a progress meter to pkg_add(1).
+
- Reduce the amount of information pkg_add(1) displays by default.
+
- Add -e option to dc(1) to evaluate expressions on the command line.
+
- Defer the IP TTL decrement so that an ICMP error with the IP header embedded doesn't have a bad checksum.
+
+
- Add strnunvis(3), a bounded version of strunvis(3).
+
- Add reentrant getproto*_r(3) and getserv*_r(3) functions. Adapted from NetBSD.
+
- Much cleanup in pciide(4), and some SATA fixups.
+
- Only delete users and groups with -c in pkg_delete(1).
+
- Implement -q and tidy up ICMP support in tcpdump(8).
+
- In ld.so(1), better handle current directory searches listed in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
+
- Add support for the HTTP proxy CONNECT method to nc(1).
+
+
- In st(4), fix bogus 'Tape block size...' errors from restore(8) and look for the SDEV_OPEN flag in the right place.
+
+
- In netstat(1) -r, show only 0.0.0.0/0 as the default route, i.e. stop ignoring the netmask.
+
- In df(1), don't display the header line if no usage lines are shown.
+
- Display the ip_len field in tcpdump(8) with the -v option.
+
- Support some new device types in bktr(4). From FreeBSD and NetBSD.
+
- Only use IPTOS_LOWDELAY on IPv4 sockets in ntpd(8).
+
- Parse pf(4) anchor names in tables the same way as anchor names in rules.
+
+
- Use the arch-dependent MAXSSIZ instead of an arbitrary fixed value as the upper limit for sysctl(8) kern.stackgap_random.
+

+
- Fix a missing brace following an 'if' statement in named(8)'s libdns (ISC #1744).
+
- Use IPTOS_LOWDELAY in ntpd(8).
+
- Allow newfs(8) to create valid filesystems with any legal combination of block and fragment sizes.
+
+
- Print the expire route metric as a signed value in route(8).
+
- Let cardbus RealTek 8138 devices attach to rl(4). More work to do.
+
- New @sysctl keyword for packing lists.
+
- Set the rootdelay in ntpd(8) server replies.
+
- Improve ntpd(8)'s compatiblity with NTP v3 and earlier.
+
- A number of fixes in ntpd(8).
+
+
- Sync the installer's install-from-tape code with reality, add a few user interface and error-checking enhancements.
+
- Change dhcrelay(8) to use a UDP socket for communication with the DHCP servers. The old bpf(4) method was forwarding packets out of the wrong interface.
+
+
- Defer display of MESSAGE files until all packages have been installed.
+
- Many fixes and cleanups in the package tools.
+
- Add support for an 'UNMESSAGE' file to the package tools, used to show the information a package would display on uninstallation without actually uninstalling it.
+
- Rewrite interface groups code, placing all groups on a tail queue, and internally referring to a group by pointer instead of by name.
+
- Remove obsolete -P, -C options and the unimplemented mtree options from the package tools.
+
+
- Add support for DWARF2 exception handling to libc.

+

- Lots of work on the package tools' new object system.
- Don't reset the chip when attaching an it(4) hardware monitor, stopping the fans going into jet engine mode.
- When sending carp(4) advertisements, protect the call to ip_output() with splsoftnet(9).
-
- Change the default return code from the spamd(8) greylister from 450 to 451. The latter code works better with mailer clusters, makeing them more likely to retry from the same IP address the next time.
