1) Files weren't properly synced on filesystems other than UFS. In some
cases, this lead to lost data. Most likely would be noticed on NFS.
The fix is to make the VM page sync/object_clean general rather than
in each filesystem.
2) Mixing regular and mmaped file I/O on NFS was very broken. It caused
chunks of files to end up as zeroes rather than the intended contents.
The fix was to fix several race conditions and to kludge up the
"b_dirtyoff" and "b_dirtyend" that NFS relies upon - paying attention
to page modifications that occurred via the mmapping.

This is getting ridiculous. I may have to put the clear() back
and take the performance penalty, Poul.
Tweak the TCP/IP setup menu to look a little nicer.
Add lp0 to the list of available network devices (it was found before
but simply not described properly).
Justin can see it.
2. Attempt to fix the redisplay problems in label.c some more. Not clearing
the screen each time is certainly faster, but it's causing all sorts of
problems.
of optimizations. Add a check to make sure that root filesystems
are at least 20MB in size (this is just a thumbnail approximation,
and we can revise it later if necessary).
disks.c: clrtobot() so that deleted stuff disappears.
disks.c: offset is signed (for OnTrack diskmanager)
system.c: don't setbuf(stdout,0), it's too slow.
Add size argument to new_part, so it can come up with a good default for newfs.
Fix (possibly) a dialog botch after label.c's wizard mode.
Make vsystem even smarter abour crunched binaries (what a speedup!)
(You need to recompile crunchgen !)
partition editors (ugh). Fix an utterly bogus message (no arguments :)
in dist.c. This should all make Poul a little happier and slide in
before the next CTM update window.
with the diff/CVS hassles - this represents far too many CVS commit
messages for you folks, and trying to document each and every iteration
of the code is a hassle (and not very useful at that).
Don't notify in vsystem() - it obscures the original message.
Put some debugging code into cpio_extract() so that I can see
why it doesn't work now. :(
crypt salt string begin with a '_', no other crypt's do. If you remove the
initialization of $salt to '_' in sub salt(), everything works as advertised.
