The stdio klibc branch got merged into klibc properly,
meaning the I/O being buffered. klibc gained with it
support for several stream functions. This massive work
got authored by hpa.
ipconfig saw several note worthy enhancement allowing the
generation of a proper lease file.
kinit added fs mount according to /etc/fstab or bootparam.
Plus several arch fixes for the usual suspects: alpha, i386, ia64
m68k, powerpc, s390x and sh4.
Many more fixes, see belows shortlog for the looong story.
A bit delayed due to kernel.org breakin, but development is
kicking in again. The 2.0 branch saw boot time tests and
deployments in Debian, so we are quite certain it should
work for the most out of you, if not please let us know.
