bee3f8463c README: Clarify devfs changes
I was informed that the previous explanation of the devfs changes could
be interpreted to mean that we mount a second /dev on top of the one
that was mounted by the kernel or initramfs. This change makes it clear
that is not the case.

3470eda3f5 Rename runscript to openrc-run
This was requested by Debian, because the minicom software, which is
available on Debian and other distros, has a binary named runscript. We
are keeping a backward compatibility symlink for now, but this allows
Debian or any other distro to safely remove the symlink.

7b5fa011ac Rename the rc binary to openrc
Debian requested this rename due to the "rc" binary conflicting with the
"rc" binary from the plan 9 shell.

We also add a deprecation warning to the binary when it is run as rc to
encourage users to switch to openrc instead.

838c9efb36 Remove gentoo's net.* scripts
It has been determined that it will be best for gentoo's net.* scripts
to be in a separate package to allow independent development.
This package will be called netifrc and maintained by Gentoo.

630d23283a Add tools directory
This directory will contain tools which are not necessary for OpenRC to
run, but which some users have found useful.

The first of these is deptree2dot, which converts /run/openrc/deptree to
a .dot file for use with graphviz. This can assist in finding circular
dependencies.

006fbdce83 fix the upstream default network stack
The OpenRC upstream default network stack was changed, but there was no
reason to change it. Now since we have the MKNET build switch, it is
easy for the gentoo ebuild to install oldnet by default.

The upstream default is newnet.

60d6847de5 add the MKNET variable to select a network stack
The MKNET variable can be used to select the network stack you want to
build and install with OpenRC.

The current default is the gentoo "oldnet" stack. If you want to install
the OpenRC newnet stack, use MKNET=newnet on the make command line.

3e2018f5e9 Revert "Deprecate the network and staticroute scripts"
This reverts commit 5994e55937.
There are situations where these scripts can be useful, so I am bringing
them back. Also, I want to start discussions about simplifying the
OpenRC network stack.

5994e55937 Deprecate the network and staticroute scripts
These scripts are not supported, and they have several major design
issues such as not being able to stop, start or allow a dependency on a
single interface.

3fca6bd027 allow default rc_sys value to be set at build time
This allows the default value of rc_sys to be set when openrc is
compiled. This will allow openrc to be installed, e.g. on vserver guests
and will allow them to be rebooted without the need to edit rc.conf.

This patch is a combined effort between myself and Robin Johnson.

c2529c1ed6 only support building with GNU Make
Update the documentation to state that openrc only works with gnu make.
This needs to be done in order to address the parallel build issue.
