m_act was the historical name of m_nextpkt, and was already deprecated
at the time D&I of 4.4BSD was published. Nothing in our tree uses it,
so I would like to propose removing it. Both FreeBSD and NetBSD have
removed theirs.
I have tested this with make build+release. I also partially tested
this with an amd64 bulk build where dpb successfully built more than
7900 installable packages, but after fighting with frozen builds for a
week I think I'll leave bulk builds to the experts. :)
Thoughts/ok?
