- Don't capitalize jumbo.
- Don't try to keep track of jumbo frame sizes in the pages. Users can
use `ifconfig hwfeatures' to determine what the hardware supports.


# 1.38 13-Sep-2014 brad

Don't say or imply that using ifconfig has anything to do with whether the
hardware can transmit or receive jumbo frames.

Incomplete section 4 mi manual page cleanup.
- make configuration lines match GENERIC files
- more Xr (hopefully usefule Xr)
- never mention intro(4) on non-physical devices (i.e. protocols), always
mention it for physical devices
- random text style and quoting fixes
- drivers ported from FreeBSD did mention rc.conf instead of hostname.if as
the place to put mediaopt
- some .Tn UNIX -> .Ox replacements
- etc, etc...
