   20081122:
           On i386 and amd64, various kernel options(4) in GENERIC including
           file-system have been disabled and moved into kernel modules.
           Before trying a new GENERIC kernel, you have to prepare
           following files as well as a new GENERIC kernel:
   
           - build and install kernel modules from src/sys/modules
   
           - install the latest bootloader, which will load a module
             for a file system where the kernel is loaded from automatically
   
           If you have to load your kernel from file system which is not
           the same type with the root file system, you have to load a necessary
           file system module manually on the boot prompt or in boot.cfg file.
   
   20080827:
           If you built and installed a libc from sources between
           2008/08/20 and 2008/08/26 you got a broken strtouq(3)
           which results in false errors reported by lint(1).
           Since this breaks the libc build itself, manual help is
           needed -- lint must be disabled temporarily, e.g:
             $ (cd lib/libc && make MKLINT=no dependall install)
   
   20080813:
           MKDEBUG build was broken because the .depend files did not know
           about .go files. You need to remove all .depend files and rebuild.
   
   20080731:
           WAPBL (metadata journaling support) has been added, but at this
           time isn't backwards compatible with pre-WAPBL aware kernels
           and userland (fsck_ffs in particular).  Please make sure you
           don't use a journaled filesystem with an older kernel/userland,
           especially an uncleanly mounted journaled filesystem.  WAPBL
           also requires the super block to be in the UFS2 format.  You
           can use fsck_ffs -c 4 to update the superblock format.
   
   20080721:
           Assembler warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0 and $NOGCCERROR
           isn't defined.
   
   20080531:
           The ioctl number of DRVSUSPENDDEV command on /dev/drvctl changed
           from 125 (conflicted with DRVCTLCOMMAND) to 129. The drvctl(8)
           utility needs to be rebuilt and reinstalled as older binaries
           won't work correctly. The following sequence of commands:
   
             $ (cd sys/sys/ && nbmake-$arch includes)
             $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch clean)
             $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch all)
   
           leaves new drvctl utility in sbin/drvctl build directory.
   
   20080503:
           The <bsd.lib.mk> variable MKPRIVATELIB was renamed to LIBISPRIVATE.
   
   20080521:
           For a while, unprivileged UPDATE builds would fail to
           succeed at the checkflist stage, complaining that
           ${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>/ did not exist.  A fix for this
           problem was committed to share/mk/bsd.kmodule.mk, revision 1.9.
           If you already hit this problem, update the .mk file,
           remove ${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>, and re-run the build.
   
   20080303:
           Linker warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0.
   
   20080126:
           The posix_fadvise system call has been changed from an assembly
           stub, to a c file that calls an assembly stub. You need to
           'rm -f posix_fadvise.* .depend' in the libc build directory to
           avoid using the old assembly stub.
   
   20071209:
           The acpiec(4) driver has been split into two attachments. If you
           get ACPI errors before the attachment, please update your kernel
           configuration file appropriately or see GENERIC for more details.
   
 20071115:  20071115:
         The it(4) driver has been renamed to itesio(4) and the old port          The it(4) driver has been renamed to itesio(4) and the old port
         argument specified in the kernel configuration file is not valid          argument specified in the kernel configuration file is not valid
