2
3	+	20120328:
4	+	mksh R40e
5	+
6	+	Perl 5.14.2
7	+
8	+	20120229:
9	+	cpucontrol(8) and cpuctl(4) added from FreeBSD 7-stable.
10	+
11	+	20120209:
12	+	mDNSResponder 333.10 imported
13	+
14	+	20111227:
15	+	import raid5 module for GEOM, graid5(8)
16	+
17	+	This is experimental and known to use a lot of kernel
18	+	memory.
19	+
20	+	20111223:
21	+	telnetd: fix a root exploit from a fixed buffer that was not checked
22	+
23	+	pam: don't allow escape from policy path.  Exploitable in KDE, etc.
24	+
25	+	Fix pam_ssh module:
26	+
27	+	If the pam_ssh module is enabled, attackers may be able to gain access
28	+	to user accounts which have unencrypted SSH private keys.
29	+
30	+	This has to due with the way that openssl works.  It ignores unencrpted data.
31	+
32	+	Fix security issue with chroot and ftpd.
33	+
34	+	nsdispatch(3) doesn't know it's working in a chroot and some
35	+	operations can cause files to get reloaded causing a security
36	+	hole in things like ftpd.
37	+
38	+	20111217:
39	+	libdialog/dialog upgraded to an lgpl version. As it's not
40	+	backwardly compatable, include the old libdialog as libodialog
41	+
42	+	20111212:
43	+	mksh r40d imported
44	+
45	+	20111210:
46	+	re(4) and rl(4) updated to support new chips.
47	+
48	+	GEOM synced with FreeBSD 7-stable.
49	+
50	+	MidnightBSD GPT partition types created in sys/gpt.h and
51	+	setup in boot loader and GEOM.
52	+
53	+	amdsbwd(4) (amd watchdog for south bridge) updated to support
54	+	8xx series chipset.
55	+
56	+	20111207:
57	+	import bsd grep from FreeBSD/OpenBSD.
58	+
59	+	MK_BSD_GREP controls which grep is installed
60	+	as grep with the other as bsdgrep or gnugrep.
61	+
62	+	20111122:
63	+	mksh vR40c imported.
64	+
65	+	20111117:
66	+	BIND 9.6 ESV R5 P1
67	+
68	+	20111107:
69	+	tzdata 2011n
70	+
71	+	20111026:
72	+	mDNSResponder v320
73	+
74	+	BIND 9.6 ESV R5
75	+
76	+	20111022:
77	+	cflow 0.0.6 imported
78	+
79	+	20111020:
80	+	less v436 imported
81	+
82	+	amdsbwd(4) AMD southbridge watchdog
83	+
84	+	20111019:
85	+	awk 20110810 imported
86	+
87	+	et(4) Agere Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet driver added, but
88	+	not included in GENERIC kernel.  The kernel module needs
89	+	testing before we can include it in GENERIC.
90	+
91	+	intr_bind code ported to allow an IRQ to be bound to one
92	+	specific CPU core.
93	+
94	+	20111017:
95	+	Time Zone Data v. 2011l (Released 10 October 2011)
96	+
97	+	Updated list of countries (iso3166) to work with new timezone data.
98	+
99	+	20111015:
100	+	Introduce CPU Affinity in MidnightBSD. cpuset(1) can be used
101	+	to control which core or group of cores can be used for a given
102	+	process. Several new system calls were added to support this
103	+	functionality in the running kernel and for 32bit binary
104	+	compatibility on amd64.
105	+
106	+	The scheduler default has been changed to ULE in i386 and
107	+	amd64.  Changes were made to both schedulers (4BSD AND ULE)
108	+	for this feature.
109	+
110	+	This work is based on Jeff Roberson's FreeBSD 7.1 patches.
