Hi,

Here is a revised patch which:

(1)  Removes link from index.sgml
(2)  Removes page from Makefile.
(3)  Leaves the page in CVS.

The existing os-comparison page is so hopelessly out of date, that it
is actually bad to have it
visible on the external web site.   It is very close to being FUD.
It is also caused a long e-mail thread on freebsd-current, pointing out
its deficiencies. :)

However, if we leave the os-comparison page in CVS,
then someone can patch it up to something more up to date and relevant.
