While I'm writing, a note to freebsd-update users:
FreeBSD-SA-11:07.chroot has a rather messy fix involving adding a new
interface to libc; this has the awkward side effect of causing the sizes
of some "symbols" (aka. functions) in libc to change, resulting in
cascading changes into many binaries. The long list of updated files is
irritating, but isn't a sign that anything in freebsd-update went wrong.
--As for the rest, it is mine.
I appreciate the hard work, though I could wish it were better timed. ;)
However, the above does worry me a bit: Is that same library change likely
to affect ports? Any way to tell which, if so? (Or should I just start
reinstalling everything...)
