The pccard modem issue has been corrected. OLDCARD support is
still a little weak in -current. slot 1 is known not to work
on some TI based cardbus bridges. Some cardbus bridges do not
properly detect insert/removal events. IRQ configuration needs
more safety belts.

It appears that soft updates are working again.
Softupdates problems have been corrected.

Peter ripped out the linkerset support. You must, as always,
rerun config after you cvsup if you are using the traditional
kernel building methods.

Two items that have been biting people:

pccard modems may not work with current after 20010604 date. Some

config ala the 20010604 entry, or you will have problems (this issue
will be fixed, it just hasn't been yet).
config and /etc/rc.conf ala the 20010604 entry, or you will have
problems (this issue will be fixed, it just hasn't been yet).

20010613:
SOFTUPDATES seem to be broken since the middle of May or so. Do not
use them in current. Resolution unknown.
use them in current. You can disable softupdates on all mounted
partitions, or remove SOFTUPDATES the kernel config file.

work around this issue, please use only one or the other mechanism

file FOO and FOO.hints, it automatically adds FOO.hints to the
hints.c file, wheather you want it to or not.
