  Modified files:
    sys/sparc64/include  utrap.h 
    sys/sparc64/sparc64  exception.S 
  Log:
  Don peril sensitive sun glasses and change the default system call vector
  for sparc64 from trap #9 to trap #65.  This is one of the ABI "blessed"
  system call vectors and is different from any other system that we might
  want to emulate, making the emulation easier by reducing the number of
  code paths that need to be shared.  Compatibility with old applications
  is provided with COMPAT_FREEBSD4.
  Add defines for a few special traps that we may need to implement for
  compatibility with 32bit applications, and add comments on which vectors
  are used for what in other systems, and which are available.
  Pass magic flags to trap() for deprecated or unimplemented system call
  vectors so they will deliver SIGSYS instead of SIGILL.
  
  This piggy backs nicely with the recent sigaction(2) system call number
  change, and provided the rules are followed for upgrading past it, this
  change should not be noticed.
