common place:
- allocsys(), which computes space for and assigns addresses
to kernel data structures at boot time.
- mips_init_msgbuf(), which initializes the error message
buffer at the end of core.
- mips_init_proc0(), which initializes the U-area for proc0
and nullproc.

When allocating bus space in bus_space_alloc(), use EX_FAST to find
the first fit in the map. The previous behavior violated the principle
of least surprise (especially annoying when you're debugging space allocation
problems). Suggested by Chris Demetriou.
Clean up the name space here a bit.
Add a `busname' element to struct ofprobe (now struct ofbus_attach_args), and
check against it.
Nuke `ofroot'.
Rename the `openfirm' attribute to `ofbus'.
* Split bios geometry and MBR partition editing code formerly in
arch/i386/{md,fdisk}.c to mbr.c in mi directory.
* Leave /sbin/fdisk parsing/handling code in separate file,
we may want to change it later. move to mi directory.
* Create mbr.h with declarations for MBR/BIOS-geomotry code.
#include "mbr.h" in i386 md.h.
* Use symbolic names for 386bsd and new NetBSD partition IDs.
Handle MBRs with both 386bsd and NetBSD partitions less stupidly.
in menus.md.{eng,fr}, lifted verbatim from Alpha and pmax.
Give last split-floppy for each X11 set, for 1.3.
FIXME: if the number of floppies in any split set changes for 1.3.1,
syinst is hosed for 1.3.1. Same is true for any release: we can't
install from split sets if the count of floppies doesn't match
the precompiled version.
The number of floppies in a split set should be computed dynamically
from a directory listing, or read from a config file in the split
directory.
* new bsd.own.mk variable OBJECT_FMT with values "a.out" or "ELF".
* use OBJECT_FMT in Makefile tests that depend on toolchain.
* Add new bsd.own.mk variable NOSHLIB that, if set indicates a given
port doesnt yet do shared libraries. Set on powerpc.
* Document new feature-test variables in src/share/mk/bsd.README.
Tested on i386, mips, fakedup Alpha environment.
(which was removed from that port not long after), as it's not
an especially meaningful test.
Also, bump the number of swap buffers allocated to 3/4 the amount
of file i/o buffers (taken from the Amiga port).
