The slower sysinstall: we don not use the same scenario now as in 2.0.5 that's why the exec gzip stuff is so much slower. in 2.0.5 the MFS disk contained uncompressed binaries, relying on kzip to compress the entire thing, not the MFS disk contains gziped bins too. I'm now committing the permanent fix for the sysctl bogusness, the malloc() stunt wasn't what I planned on using, but I needed to to get netscape working so I could get my head back from Peter to think with doing the rest of this stuff.
