New Revision: 224875
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/224875

Log:
  Bump __FreeBSD_version to reflect the availability of capabilities, but
  also capability-related changes to fget(9).  This is likely not part of
  a formal KPI, but the nvidia driver (at least) uses it.
  
  Mention /dev/{stdin,stdout,stderr} breakage that appears in certain
  kernel revisions as best avoided!

+	During the merge of Capsicum features, the fget(9) KPI was modified.
+	This may require the rebuilding of out-of-tree device drivers --
+	issues have been reported specifically with the nVidia device driver.
+	__FreeBSD_version is bumped to 900041.
+
+	Also, there is a period between 20110811 and 20110814 where the
+	special devices /dev/{stdin,stdout,stderr} did not work correctly.
+	Building world from a kernel during that window may not work.

 	You need to update userland tools to be in sync with kernel.
