todr_settime_ymdhms. This allows drivers to avoid repeated conversions, and
allows us to centralize check for Y2038 overflow. As discussed on
tech-kern.
FROMBCD()/TOBCD() macros into wrappers around it, resulting in both
smaller code footprint and elimination of possible issues due to
multiple evaluation of macro arguments.
Suggested by Simon Burge and Anders Gavare on tech-kern.
-Wcast-qual differently, by instead changing the signatore of those
"functions" to take a "volatile struct timeval*" instead of a
"struct timeval*". Many places, these functions are called with
&time, and time is declared as volatile in <sys/kernel.h>. This
way we can get rid of all the ugly casts which now also triggered
warnings, and caused more code to be added to work around the
problem.

Some of the stuff (e.g., rarpd, bootpd, dhcpd etc., libsa) still will
only support Ethernet. Tcpdump itself should be ok, but libpcap needs
lot of work.
For the detailed change history, look at the commit log entries for
the is-newarp branch.
