use stdscr's maxx and maxy to set up the message window rather than hard
coding 78 and 22, respectively. The latter, combined with large messages
and a relatively small screen (and perhaps badly-placed menus), would seem
to cause the SEGVs reported in PR#7806. (For certain window sizes, the
menu system would reject the menus as too small, but for others sysinst
would just crash.)
password, offer defaults. When displaying the current values, note
that a password has been set and is hidden, rather than displaying
the number of characters entered for the password. (Thanks to wrstuden
for the translation of "hidden"...)
start of the URL so that the request will start from / (rather than
relative to the login directory; makes things work better for
non-anonymous FTP). To make it clearer what's going on, make the
default path (used to get distribution bits) relative. (according
to the 1.4 LAST_MINUTE file, this is OK.)
* Also, %-encode passwords in FTP URLs (doesn't help actual security, but
makes it slightly harder to figure out a password by reading over
somebody's shoulder).
be called. it'd cleanup() then exit(). however, cleanup() is scheduled
to run at exit via atexit(). This means that it gets run twice, and
this causes confusion for things like endwin(). The end result is
that rather than actually exiting and printing the "sysinst terminated"
message, after one control-c it looks like it's still sitting at the
last screen you were viewing even though it's actually at a shell prompt.
squelch the cleanup() in the SIGINTR handler to avoid this problem.
* while here, nuke the annoying space before the "sysinst terminated."

in sets/lists/*. The sript sets/makeobsolete concatenates the mi and md
obsolete list files all or a specified set and dumps it in a file, in a
subdir specified on the command line (inspired from the maketar and makeflist
files).
Use this for all the sysinst-based installs.
Untested for non-i386, and the md obsolete list may be wrong or incomplete.
Each postmaster is supposed to check this on his port.
* The merged contents file didn't work out, so nuke it and put it back
into each port directory. Most still have the now-pointless conditionals;
these now should be deleted.
* fix alpha, amiga, and arm32 to delete the maze of twisty little conditionals
