Add two new items:

(1) obrien is reporting problems using smbfs to access Win2k shares, and
    there have been other less specific reports of problems with smbfs.
    Testing of smbfs in various environments, and fixing of bugs, is
    much encouraged.

(2) NETNCP and newfs appear still not to be reconnected to the build from
    the original KSE integration work, and do not build.  Fixing these
    is complicated by an apparent lack of Netware installs easily
    available to developers, meaning that while syntactic fixes might
    be made, it's difficult to know if they are right.

Developers are encouraged to explore these problems and see if we can't
work out what's going on: smbfs and nwfs are both very important to
the success of FreeBSD 5.0.
