- re-order options in `DESCRIPTION' section;

table consistent);

Allow "echo -n" to work as expected in rc.d scripts that are executed
...
by /etc/rc. Similarly for printf with a format that does not end with
"\n". Previously, the partial line would not be visible on the console
until a newline was printed, possibly after an annoying delay.
This is done by adding echo() and printf() shell functions to rc.subr,
so that naive use of the echo and printf commands in rc.d scripts will
call these functions instead of the underlying commands. These shell
functions send a new "nop" metadata message after the partial line, and
the rc_postprocess function in /etc/rc disentangles the partial line of
plain output from the metadata "nop".
Also add a "-n" option to the print_rc_normal function in rc.subr,
and make some cosmetic changes.

Add support for the Extensible MIPS ("eMIPS") platform. The

NetBSD/emips port runs on Xilinx and Beecube FPGA systems and the
Giano system simulator.
eMIPS is a platform developed at Microsoft Research for researching
reconfigurable computing. eMIPS allows dynamic loading and scheduling
of application-specific circuits for the purpose of accelerating
computations based on the current workload.
NetBSD eMIPS support for NetBSD 4.x was written at Microsoft Research
by Alessandro Forin and Neil Pittman. Microsoft Corporation has
donated full copyright to The NetBSD Foundation.
Platform support for eMIPS is the first part of Microsoft's
contribution. The second part includes the hardware accelerator
framework and will be proposed on tech-kern soon.
