    lib/libc/rpc         clnt_dg.c 
  Log:
  Disable RPC exponential back-off for FreeBSD.org systems (IE. hidden
  behind _FREEFALL_CONFIG).  This is done mainly to make NIS even more
  resistant to packet loss.

  This is not enabled by default for "normal" FreeBSD since it might cause
  the server providing the RPC service to be hit heavily with RPC traffic
  in case of problems.  freefall.FreeBSD.org and hub.FreeBSD.org have been
  running with a patch similar to this for a couple of weeks.

  MFC after:      1 week
