backing file per attribute type indexed by inode number to hold the extended
attributes.
This is working pretty well on my test systems, except for the "autostart"
feature. I need someone with a better handle on the VFS locking protocol
to go over that.
This is a work-in-progress. There are parts of this that could be re-factored
allowing this approach to be used on other types of file systems.
Adapted from FreeBSD.
It is worth remembering that trailing spaces are significant in the message
files - they cause a line break if the text is auto-filled to the RH margin.
(This is often the case when the text is a format string.)
Note: nothing (yet) checks the number (or type) of the format effectors in
the message strings. I found and fixed one big error, but others will
cause core dumps.

Also, clarify some comments, escape a backlash so that the correct
macro for ø is generated, and make sure it's substituted everywhere
in the name.
This script is still not perfect - it will produce incorrect output
the first time that the second portmaster has a hyperlink associated
with his name. For now, though, it generates correct output for
what we've got.
for the most part, skeleton files that allow the amd64 INSTALL document
to have all the platform-independent bits, with very little MD stuff.
The MD pieces will have to wait for someone familiar with the platform
to add them.
images from "normal" into cloop2-format compressed images and back.
Written by Florian Stoehr (netbsd@wolfnode.de) with some polishing
by me.
Compressed disk images can be used with the vnd(4) driver when compiled with
VND_COMPRESSION and "vnconfig -z". Useful for creation of Live CDs/DVDs.
