There is important information about booting non-ack images in docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the new boot monitor is recommended. Changes in this commit: . drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support . facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING . no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries . some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases . drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet). . a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir . new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/ . test compile fix . harmonize includes . /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even less on the state of the machine making them now. . rename nbsd_lib* to lib* . reduce mtree

An episode of "The Adventures of Superman" entitled "The Mysterious
|
|
Cube," first aired 1958-02-24, had Superman convincing the controllers
|
|
of WWV to broadcast time signals five minutes ahead of actual time;
|
|
doing so got a crook trying to beat the statute of limitations to
|
|
emerge a bit too early from the titular enclosure.

|
|
The 1960s ITC television series "The Prisoner" included an episode
|
|
entitled "The Chimes of Big Ben" in which our protagonist tumbled to
|
|
the fraudulent nature of a Poland-to-England escape upon hearing "Big
|
|
Ben" chiming on Polish local time.

"Gloom, Gloom, Go Away" by Walter Kirn appeared on page 106 of Time

Magazine's 2002-11-11 issue; among other things, it proposed

year-round DST as a way of lessening wintertime despair.

The "20 Hours in America" episode of "The West Wing," first aired 2002-09-25,
|

saw White House staffers stranded in Indiana; they thought they had time to

catch Air Force One but were done in by intra-Indiana local time changes.

"In what time zone would you find New York City?" was a $200 question on

the 1999-11-13 United States airing of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?"
|
|
"In 1883, what industry led the movement to divide the U.S. into four time
|
|
zones?" was a $32,000 question on the 2001-05-23 United States airing of
|
|
"Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" At this rate, the million-dollar time-zone
|
|
question should have been asked 2002-06-04.

A private jet's mid-flight change of time zones distorts Alison Dubois'

</li>
|

<li>
|
|
In the 1946 "A Matter of Life and Death,"
|
|
there is a reference to British Double Summer Time.
|
|
The time does not play a large part in the plot;
|
|
it's just a passing reference to the time when one of the
|
|
characters was supposed to have died (but didn't).
