standard explicitly disallows passing setenv a name with a '=' in
it but historic BSD behavior is to allow this but to ignore the '='
and anything after it.
reply instead of doing it in ntpd itself by getting the time we read
from the socket. based on a diff from mickey hacked in shape by me,
lots of testing and review from ckuethe and sthen, theo and claudio like it
too
1) replace +%e by +%d, unescaped blanks don't work at all in file names
2) replace +%b by +%m to make log files sort better by month
3) replace the home-grown +%Y.%m.%d by the standard +%F (= +%Y-%m-%d)

1) advertise *.local and next_part near the top of the three scripts
2) daily: mention smtpd(8) mailq behaviour (like for sendmail, postfix, exim)
3) weekly: drop a comment trivially rehashing the next two lines of code
documenting next_part in the scripts was suggested by jmc@

useful for example for release(8) DESTDIRs, ro-mounted foreign OS
partitions, nosuid+nodev-mounted backup areas and the like
while here, do not call ls w/o args in case find returns nothing
based on a patch from halex@, re-implemented by me; variable naming by jmc@

Do not attempt to copy a larger partition onto a smaller one.
Backup of non-ffs root partitions was never supported, so don't even try.
(Both of the above suggested by guenther@).
Also add error messages in case ROOTBACKUP is switched on but severely
misconfigured - those were silently ignored in the past:
/altroot not defined or wrong type or on the same device as root.
otto@ agrees that checking the sizes makes sense
error out.
Add a new user _rwalld for rpc.rwalld, and use that instead
of nobody, also unconditionally drop to _rwalld not only
if rpc.rwalld was started with euid 0 (as root).

i.e. rely on the PATH set up in the root crontab(5)
in case /usr/local/bin is needed, daily.local is a logical place to append it
suggested by ajacoutot@; "i like this" okan@; feedback jmc@ deraadt@;
"i don't strongly object" sthen@
rely on the PATH set up in the root crontab(5), just like in monthly(8)
suggested by ajacoutot@; "i like this" okan@; feedback jmc@ sthen@;

based on a patch from John Wong, johnw at wonghome dot net, tweaked by me
while here, document globbing for normal lines, too
"i like that" okan@; feedback and ok jmc@
machinery minimally cope with this.
Discussed with and reluctantely accepted by deraadt@; we both dislike
losing the ``naturally comes out of your fingers'' kernel names and the
``one size fits all'' logic; but for now I don't see any easy way to
get a single kernel binary able to run on multiple IP## flavours.
the first query we will never do the settime because
SENSOR_QUERY_INTERVAL (30s) is greater than SETTIME_TIMEOUT (15s). so
during the settime period only, be more aggressive and use
SETTIME_TIMEOUT/3 for the query interval.
ok henning@
add the same infrastructure to daily; silencing daily needs another step
discussed with ajacoutot@ okan@ todd@ sthen@ deraadt@ jmc@
"immediately commit" deraadt@ (without seeing the final diff)
in preparation for improvements in /etc/daily and /etc/weekly
using feedback and suggestions from jmc@ and sthen@
ok jmc@, and sthen@ agreed with the general direction
