. if_media support (obtained from Jason Thorpe's NetBSD implementation),
. multi-session ISO-9660 support

Move aic6[26]30 and floppy tapes out into an ``unmaintained'' subsection,
so people don't expect the same quality of support for them as for other
drivers.

Our ATAPI CD-ROM driver should no longer be considered ALPHA quality
now, i think.

@ -33,6 +33,14 @@ Use the new if_multiaddrs list for multicast addresses rather than the
previous hackery involving struct in_ifaddr and arpcom. Get rid of the
abominable multi_kludge.
The new if_media selection method for ethernet drivers has been brought
in, obtained from Jason Thorpe's NetBSD implementation.
Multi-session ISO-9660 CD-ROMs are now fully supported. By default, the
last session will be mounted (including for root mounts). For non-root
mounts, mount_cd9660(8) can take an argument to mount a particular
session instead of the default one.
