>Description:
Add a requires line to /sys/amd64/conf/NOTES
( To avoid others tripping up on this as I did:
For those who enable COMPAT_IA32 for ports/emulators, but disable
COMPAT_FREEBSD7 as they compile all binaries on upgrade )
As of Fri Apr 23 14:37:14 CEST 2010
COMPAT_FREEBSD7 is not mentioned in { 8.0-RELEASE stable current }
/sys/amd64/conf/NOTES
so this will probably apply for all 3, but Ive only tested
the dependency on 8.0-RELEASE)
