For those who missed decsription from previous commit:
Add aureal-kmod - a port to provide convinient way for building FreeBSD driver
for Aureal based soundcards. This driver could not be added to the base system
because it's uses binary-only Linux Vortex Core object modules.
The port supports 4-STABLE and 5-CURRENT, however 4-STABLE isn't tested, so
please report your mileage to me.

and it therefore can be quite useful in situations where a minimal system
is being used or when a windowing system is otherwise unavailable or
unfeasible.

did, and is able to adjust each task's frequency until the optimal organization
is found.

editing and searching features) for several bibliographic database formats -
currently supported are BibTeX, Medline, Ovid and Refer. In addition, it can
export references directly to LyX.

forth (all with a "g" prepended to their names). With the approval
of the submitter, I've disabled the suid bit on gsu by default,
with a note to users that they should review the philosophy behind
GNU su:
Why GNU `su' does not support the `wheel' group
===============================================
(This section is by Richard Stallman.)
Sometimes a few of the users try to hold total power over all the
rest. For example, in 1984, a few users at the MIT AI lab decided to
seize power by changing the operator password on the Twenex system and
keeping it secret from everyone else. (I was able to thwart this coup
and give power back to the users by patching the kernel, but I wouldn't
know how to do that in Unix.)
However, occasionally the rulers do tell someone. Under the usual
`su' mechanism, once someone learns the root password who sympathizes
with the ordinary users, he or she can tell the rest. The "wheel
group" feature would make this impossible, and thus cement the power of
the rulers.
I'm on the side of the masses, not that of the rulers. If you are
used to supporting the bosses and sysadmins in whatever they do, you
might find this idea strange at first.
