 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   
   20120507:
           The database schema for makemandb was changed. You will
           need to update the database using 'makemandb -f' or wait
           for the next weekly run to fix it.
   
   20120319:
           sys/conf/Makefile.kern.inc has been modified to adjust the
           size of db_symtab automatically.  You need to update dbsym in
           your $TOOLDIR to build kernels with options SYMTAB_SPACE.  If
           you don't want this behavior, add AUTO_SYMTAB_SPACE=no to your
           mk.conf.
   
   20120216:
           Default for MKCATPAGES changed to NO. Update builds will fail
           unless DESTDIR is cleaned manually. If you built between 20120207
           and 20120216, daily and weekly could have created an unreable
           /var/db/man.db index for apropos. Running makemandb -f or
           the next run of weekly will fix it.
   
   20111227:
           If you built between 20111225 and 20111227 you need to remove
           /usr/lib/libpam.so.4* and /usr/lib/security/*.so.4, since the
           bump has been reverted.
   
   20111125:
           The "rnd" pseudodevice has been added to sys/conf/std, which
           means it should no longer be explicitly listed in kernel
           configuration files.  The line "pseudo-device rnd" should be
           removed from any custom kernel config files users may have.
   
   20111119:
           A problem with the datastructures used by the rndctl(8)
           utility (pointers in datastructures in an array, making 32->64
           bit compatibility very painful) has been fixed in a
           non-backwards-compatible way.  If you replace your kernel,
           replace your rndctl executable too.
   
   20111001:
           the prop_*_send_syscall() functions from proplib(3) have been
           changed and their new version is not backward compatible with the old
           one. So ensure that all consumers of these functions (currently:
           quota2 code and its tests) are updated together with the new lib.
   
   20110817:
           sparc has been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any objdir or
           DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
   
   20110806:
           i386 and amd64 have been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any
           objdir or DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
   
   20110805:
           The update to GCC 4.5.3 requires a non-trivial portion of
           the tree to be cleaned.  Best to delete both objdir and
           DESTDIR before running this update.  So far, only the
           sparc64, mips and powerpc platforms have changed.
   
   20110803:
           The layout of external/public-domain/xz has changed. To do an
           update build you will have to remove the contents of the OBJDIR
           for external/public-domain/xz/bin by hand as the xz entry there
           is now a directory.
   
   20110410:
           The configuration of src/tools/gcc has changed. To do an
           update build you have to clean both tools/binutils and
           tools/gcc by hand.
   
   20110328:
           Building the Xorg binary was moved into a subdirectory to fix
           ordering issues with "make all". It may be necessary to remove
           the OBJDIR for external/mit/xorg/server/xorg-server/hw/xfree86
           if your update build fails, as the "Xorg" entry there is now a
           directory.
