30hack	netstat ieee1394 address printing.

34descr
35	Because the current implementation of IP over IEEE1394, the
36	fw device address contains more than just the IEEE1394 EUI-64.
37	So when printing out IEEE1394 addresses, ignore the extra stuff.

40hack	xterm vs. libterm

44pr	10383
45descr
46	In order to extend the termcap string over 1023 bytes, a ZZ entry was
47	introduced to point to a memory location containing the full entry.
48	Without this hack, xterm will export a termcap containing the ZZ
49	entry, which will then be ignored by libterm.  As xterm modifies the
50	exported termcap, this would cause those modifications to be ignored.

57descr	Add an option to access the underlying bus in big endian byte order
58	to work around deficiencies in bus_space_{read,write}_* macros.
59	Those don't allow the implementation of a proper pcmcia bus space
60	tag.

74hack	Compensation for differing types of LINUX_USRSTACK and USRSTACK
75cdate	21 Aug 2003
76who	he
77file	sys/miscfs/procfs/procfs_linux.c : 1.14
78descr
79	Not all ports have LINUX_USRSTACK and/or USRSTACK defined as
80	literals/constants, but refer to variables of a type which is
81	not "unsigned long", causing compilation of procfs_linux.c to
82	fail with "makes integer from pointer without a cast".  This
83	is observed on e.g. the sun3 port.  Ideally the "types" for
84	symbols should be consistent across all ports.

87hack	GCC2 isn't C99
88cdate	5 December 2003
89who	mrg
90file	gnu/dist/binutils/ld/ldlex.c: r1.2
91descr
92	ldlex.c is generated from ldlex.l and we get macro redefinition
93	errors from it if __STDC_VERSION__ is not C99 compliant.  This
94	hack forces NetBSD 1.6 and later systems to also include <stdint.h>
95	to get the relevant definitions.  This hack should be backed out
96	when all platforms have switched away from GCC2.

103file	src/usr.sbin/racoon/racoon/Makefile : 1.21
104descr
105	GCC issues a warning "dereferencing type-punned pointer will break
106	strict-aliasing rules" when compiling
107	crypto/dist/kame/racoon/crypto/openssl.c with -O[23s]. Note that this
108	is due to use of type casting in a non-standard way in the code and
109	not a compiler bug. Once a new release of KAME with a proper fix
110	applied is imported this should be backed out.

347		The first four PLT entries are reserved.  There is some

351		SPARC binutils do not generate them, and now the 64-bit SPARC
352		binutils have stopped generating them too.
353
354		To provide binary compatibility, we will check the first entry,
355		if it is reserved it should not be of the type JMP_SLOT.  If it
356		is JMP_SLOT, then the 4 reserved entries were not generated and
357		our index is 4 entries too far, so we frob the rela pointer.

464		The SuperH SH5 toolchain generates incorrect PIC code when
465		faced with a symbol which is declared extern, but has local
466		scope due to being defined within an asm() statement (without
467		being declared .globl in that statement). Work around it by
468		adding the .globl.
