Story so fr:
1) PPP on-demand with static IP works.
2) PPP on-demand with dynamic IP says "Host is down" on any IP request
The problem is that tun driver check its READY state by *first* ifconfig address.
i.e.:
set ifaddr <addr> <addr2>
works (static IP) and
set ifaddr 0 <addr2>
not works (dynamic IP) because first address is equal 0.
Since tun is always POINTOPOINT interface, dst address is more meaningfull.
I change checking to second (dst) address in READY test.
PPP on-demand finally works.
2) Improve on-line help subsystem
3) Make 'term' mode works even carrier dropped (old code
close line forever here)
4) Make 'term' mode 8bit clean.
5) Improve manual page
6) #ifdef DEBUG diagnostic about missing optional files.
7) Don't put interactive dialing info to logfile

Don't compile any keyboard probing code if PROBE_KEYBOARD isn't defined.

Removed -I paths. They weren't used, and the one to /sys hasn't worked

counter instead of the BIOS time call to save space.
Reworked the anti-noise timeout to avoid duplicating code. The timeout
in the outer loop is now restarted after every noise timeout, so it is
now possible for the total timeout to be infinite; previously, the maximum
total timeout was 150000 seconds.
must have limit 0xffff and attribute G = 0 (byte granularity) as well
as other properties that they already had (see e.g., the Intel i486
manual section 22.5). Not restoring them broke Ctrl-Alt-Del in the
bootstrap for my ASUS P55TP4XE system, probably because the Award BIOS
does anti-tracing stuff involving inaccessible %esp's.
asm.S:
Don't use lret in prot_to_real(). This reduces the risk of using an
incompletely intialized stack segment and saves space.

since I've no idea what the ISO standard for Italian keyboards is, but we
can always adjust it later and this is better than the nothing we had before.

(Sorry Jordan, but your other idea (${CATEGORIES}) was a major hit.)
Also remove the keyword field in the INDEX line and replace it with
two columns: build-time dependencies and run-time dependencies. They
are both list of package names (minus the ".tgz").
(1) people can have weird paths and it will still work, and
(2) if you really need to use /usr/local/bin/cp instead of /bin/cp,
you can do that by changing only one line.

were paged in under low swap space conditions to both loose their
backing store and their dirty bits. This would cause pages to
be demand zeroed under certain conditions in low VM space conditions
and consequential sig-11's or sig-10's. This situation was made
worse lately when the level for swap space reclaim threshold was
increased.

delay that you can set in the modem configuration file. The hard-wire
delay is to short if the modem has to switch major modes and reset
(ie going from fax to data mode with a reset).

Otherwise, it will return an NIS-related error even if NIS isn't

static NetBSD binaries. Dynamic binaries are a much bigger problem because
the shared libraries would conflict with our native libraries, so a
/compat/netbsd alternate namespace and translation would be needed.
