* Add Rich Murphey's name back into the attributions for this chapter.

His name was apparently accidently removed when we moved to the
  <chapterinfo> scheme.
* Add a standard synopsis to this chapter.
* Remove gratuitous "For information about <title of next section>,
  see <number of next section>".
* Use <xref> instead of a <link> to Ports chapter.
* Clean up the section about KLDs and enabling Linux compatibility.
