  Modified files:
    share/man/man9       Makefile sysctl_add_oid.9 
                         sysctl_ctx_init.9 
  Added files:
    share/man/man9       sysctl.9 
  Log:
  Add a basic man page for the sysctl(9) macro interfaces.  Previously man
  pages existed only for the dynamic sysctl interfaces.  There's probably
  more complete and accurate content, better advice, etc, that could be added
  here.
  
  Per scottl's suggest, add a small piece of moralizing text regarding the
  fact that sysctl names quickly get embedded in system configuration files,
  libraries, third party applications, and even books, so renaming and
  removing names after they've been published is a tricky issue.
