+ The netgraph ABI version number has been incremented to indicate
+ an incompatible change in the ABI. Old netgraph nodes will refuse
+ to attach until recompiled. Netgraph no uses tehmbuf TAGS feature
+ to move metadata and this commit removes its home-grown metadata
+ facility. Nodes should just recompile unless they use metadata
+ in which case the changes are simple and shown in ng_ksocket.c
+ which can be used as an example.

ACPI has been updated to disable known-bad BIOS revisions. A message
will be printed on console indicating that ACPI has been disabled
automatically and that the user should use a newer BIOS, if possible.
