to FTS_LOGICAL (follow symlinks and return their targets)
Because
1) In the real system there is a lot of symlinks nowdays over
/var, /spool, etc. Mtree can't do anything for them, i.e. change
permissions/owner. I.e. if you have /var/mail -> /somewhere
it will never be changed to group "mail" 775 like -current does now,
symlink totally confuses mtree.
2) Mtree can't deal with symlinks properly in any case (they are created
separately in other places now), so we lost no functionality by making
them invisible for mtree.
can be specified without the flags field.
Fix bogus "trail" left in parse routine where the code jumps
past the end of the line and wanders into oblivion.
sysinstall about the dangerously dedicated message, and other
variables to allow pre-configuring the distribution sets.
Still todo: add a variable to define an initial set of packages that
should be loaded.

(good thing for apache f.e.) This change is backward compatible with old
newsyslog.conf files.
2) Do not compress log if SIGHUP sending failed for some reason
(f.e. pid file deleted). Newcoming messages will be lost
otherwise.
3) Misc cleanup while I am here.
found that my syslogd is now running them for several months...
Add an option to syslogd to restrict the IP addresses that are allowed
to log to this syslogd. It's too late to develop the inter-syslogd
communications protocol mentioned in the BUGS section, some 10 years
too late. Thus, restricting the IP address range is about the most
effective change we can do if we want to allow incoming syslog
messages at all.
IMHO, we should encourage the system administrators to use this option,
and thus provide a knob in /etc/rc.* for it, defaulting to -a 127.0.0.1/32
(just as a hint about the usage).
Please state opinions about whether to merge this change into 2.2 or
not (i've got it running on RELENG_2_2 anyway).
