Log:
Remove a reference to the `compat.linux.osrelease' sysctl.
As Alexander Leidinger has pointed out:
"glibc behaves differently based upon the value of it. It may refuse to
do anything if it doesn't understand the value. Changing the value of
osrelease is only advised in experimental situations (like in
http://wiki.freebsd.org/linux-kernel) and may result even in kernel
panics."
I've replaced a reference to `compat.linux.osrelease' with a safer
example, for setting `security.bsd.see_other_uids=0', which we already
use as a sample /etc/sysctl.conf entry anyway.
