301.1Slukemhack	netstat ieee1394 address printing.

341.1Slukemdescr
351.1Slukem	Because the current implementation of IP over IEEE1394, the
361.1Slukem	fw device address contains more than just the IEEE1394 EUI-64.
371.1Slukem	So when printing out IEEE1394 addresses, ignore the extra stuff.

401.1Slukemhack	xterm vs. libterm

451.1Slukemdescr
461.1Slukem	In order to extend the termcap string over 1023 bytes, a ZZ entry was
471.1Slukem	introduced to point to a memory location containing the full entry.
481.1Slukem	Without this hack, xterm will export a termcap containing the ZZ
491.1Slukem	entry, which will then be ignored by libterm.  As xterm modifies the
501.1Slukem	exported termcap, this would cause those modifications to be ignored.

561.1Slukemfile	dev/ic/wireg.h
571.1Slukemdescr	Add an option to access the underlying bus in big endian byte order
581.1Slukem	to work around deficiencies in bus_space_{read,write}_* macros.
591.1Slukem	Those don't allow the implementation of a proper pcmcia bus space

671.3Sjdcdescr
681.3Sjdc	Swap red/blue and yellow/cyan colours for COLOR_OTHER.
691.3Sjdc	Fix is to enhance libtermcap to understand terminfo-style % sequences.

741.7Shehack	Compensation for differing types of LINUX_USRSTACK and USRSTACK
751.7Shecdate	21 Aug 2003
761.7Shewho	he
771.7Shefile	sys/miscfs/procfs/procfs_linux.c : 1.14
781.7Shedescr
791.7She	Not all ports have LINUX_USRSTACK and/or USRSTACK defined as
801.7She	literals/constants, but refer to variables of a type which is
811.7She	not "unsigned long", causing compilation of procfs_linux.c to
821.7She	fail with "makes integer from pointer without a cast".  This
831.7She	is observed on e.g. the sun3 port.  Ideally the "types" for
841.7She	symbols should be consistent across all ports.

911.37Sjunyoungfile	src/usr.sbin/racoon/racoon/Makefile : 1.21
921.37Sjunyoungdescr
931.37Sjunyoung	GCC issues a warning "dereferencing type-punned pointer will break
941.37Sjunyoung	strict-aliasing rules" when compiling
951.37Sjunyoung	crypto/dist/kame/racoon/crypto/openssl.c with -O[23s]. Note that this
961.38Sjunyoung	is due to use of type casting in a non-standard way in the code and
971.38Sjunyoung	not a compiler bug. Once a new release of KAME with a proper fix
981.38Sjunyoung	applied is imported this should be backed out.

1811.58Smrgdescr
1821.58Smrg	GCC 4.1 gets many uninitialised variable warnings wrong.  We should
1831.58Smrg	really audit all the old hacks like this when older compilers are
1841.58Smrg	removed from the tree, as many are probably no longer required.
1851.65Schristos	The problem is that it does not recognize initialization via function
1861.65Schristos	call pointer. I.e.
1871.65Schristos		int p;
1881.65Schristos		foo(&p);
1891.65Schristos	does not mark p as initialized.
