Yes, it's only been 4 days since the last SNAP, but that last SNAP had
a few major problems with it which made it unsuitable for general use.
This SNAP should fix all the major show-stopper bugs and a number of
more minor ones.  As always, please use send-pr(1) or
http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html to submit bug reports or comments
on this SNAP.

What's New, from the release notes:

0. What's new since 2.2-961006-SNAP?
------------------------------------

11th-hour bug in SYN attack protection code fixed [showstopper].

Support for Cyclades Cyclom-Y (multi-port async serial) PCI adaptors
as well as multiple controllers and the 32-Y (if you are currently using
the Cyclades serial adapter, you should re-make your /dev entries and
remove the old ones).

/usr/src/contrib now part of src dist selection (doh!) [showstopper].

You need only change your kernel settings *once* now, on initial startup
from the floppy.  They will be preserved on the subsequently installed
kernel.


0. What's new since 2.2-960801-SNAP?
------------------------------------
Support for HP PC Lan+ cards (model numbers: 27247B and 27252A)

Update to gcc 2.7.2.1 & add support for weak symbols.

Many things moved/brought into /usr/src/contrib, updating and
cleaning up the source tree accordingly.

Support for compiled-in shared library ld paths.

Update sgmlfmt to `instant'.

Protection against the widely reported SYN attack.
