    BIG update this time for OmniOS bloody as we head to r151016.  If there is another bloody before r151016, it'll be bugfixes or upstream-illumos that I think require some bloody soak time.

    New with this update out of omnios-build (now at master revision 76d2785 in the install media, and one additional bugfix advancing to e75489a in the repo server):

    - gcc51 now built with parallel make (shrinking build times noticeably)

    - So many updates I had to automate the extraction of them:

        Update gnu-make to 4.1
        Update xz to 5.2.2
        Update wget to 1.16.3
        Update unixodbc to 2.3.2
        Update tmux to 2.0   (NOTE --> additional bugfix available only from "pkg update", thanks to Lauri "lotheac" Tirkkonen for the fix)
        Update tcsh to 6.19.0
        Update sqlite-3 to 3.8.11.1
        Update sigcpp to 2.6.1
        Update screen to 4.3.1
        Update simplejson-26 to 3.8.0
        Update pylint to 1.4.4
        Update ply to 3.8
        Update numpy-26 to 1.10.0
        Update lxml-26 to 3.4.4
        Update coverage-26 to 4.0
        Update pv (pipe-viewer) to 1.6.0
        Update pcre to 8.37
        Update pciutils to 3.4.0
        Update gnu-patch to 2.7.5
        Update netperf to 2.7.0
        Update Mercurial to 3.5.2
        Update libxml2 to 2.9.2
        Update libtool & libltdl to 2.4.6
        Update libpcap to 1.7.4
        Update libidn to 1.32
        Update iso-codes to 3.57
        Update ISC DHCP to 4.3.3
        Update intltool to 0.51.0
        Update groff to 1.22.3
        Update git to 2.6.1
        Update gawk to 4.1.3
        Update Amazon EC2 API to 1.7.5.1
        Update curl to 7.44.0
        Update bind to 9.10.3
        Update bash to 4.3p42
        Update automake to 1.15
        Update XML::Parser to 2.44
        Update coreutils to 8.24
        Update Mercurial to 3.5.1

    And highlights of illumos-omnios progress (now at master revision 85fef88, meaning uname -v == omnios-85fef88) include:

    - Resumable ZFS send/recv.  Flag day here:

    	http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/182191/2015/10/sort/time_rev/page/1/entry/2:18/20151012235207:C12B2C18-715D-11E5-A848-EAF6A2A023E1/

    - New ZFS hash algorithms

    - Other ZFS bugfixes

    - Fix in link aggregations (aggrs) to be more reliable in the face of downed links (illumos 6274)

    - strerror_l() for localized strerror().  (Translations welcome.)

    - Updated hardware data (prelude to r151016).

    - Assorted SMB/CIFS fixes from Nexenta.

    - Slight increase in the number of concurrent BEs GRUB can cope with (up from 40 to ~55, but officially we still suggest you keep it at 40 or less).

    - useradd/del/mod is now ZFS aware, fix from OpenIndiana.

    - EOL of cachefs (I hope nobody is still using it...).

    - New uuidgen(1) command.

    - prtdiag(1M) improvements dealing with hardware in slots.

    - SMBIOS 3.0 support, from Joyent.

    - NVMe support (pardon the delay here, wanted it in '014 first).

    Please give this one a spin folks -- it's essentially an r151016 preview.

    Dan
