XXX: Someone needs to go through all standard I/O functions in the libc,
update the list, and keep it updated. While at it, please convert the
list to use .Xr so that we can have links in HTML pages.
It slightly improves performance on NWS-1750D (MC68030 25MHz):

MI m68k/pmap_motorola.c and other sources can handle both 4KB/8KB pages
(amiga and atari have used 8KB pages for many years) and there is
no binary compatibility issue on it.
(kernel modules might be affected but 5.99.29 was just two days ago)
As mentioned in src/sys/rump/dev/lib/libdisk/Makefile,
rump(4) builds don't check if each ${MACHINE} actually supports
MBR in MD readdisklabel(9) ops while it pulls MD <machine/disklabel.h>.
Workarounds so long broken build of ews4800mips.
This list was updated only two times in nearly two decades.
(If people need to learn the standard I/O functions in C, it would be better
to mention K&R or some other textbook; if people need to know the list of
functions, it would be better to point out the location of the standard.)
In addition, some clean-up and structural editing.
While such lists are nice, they are doomed to be repeatedly out of date due
maintenance costs related to manual updates. Ideally there should be a
common routine to auto-generate these, but in the meantime, just point to
the directory where libutil is implemented.
- device_t-ify
- sanitize debugging #ifdefs
- deal with firmwares setting up modes using other clocks than #0
- get rid of sparc and macppc-specific code, use device properties instead
- while there, use alternate box drawing font if needed
into an alternate font pointed at by the recently added mappings in wsfont,
adapt all putchar() methods except the rotated ones to use them
XXX no attempt has been made to make this work with rotation
1. build the static modules first, before libpam so that the static
libpam can link against the module .a files.
2. build the modules after the dynamic libpam is build, so that the
dynamic modules can link against the dynamic libpam.
- remove "other contributors" in the time of 386BSD
XXX: probably we should simply refer htdocs/people/developers.html
XXX: rather than maintaining two independent lists
