OK, is there a how to page for installing these patches? They aren't self
evident, and the search on FreeBSD.org keeps bringing up results from the
commiters handbook...

Maybe a related link on the security page for ahow to install SA patches or
something. If it's really there, please forgive me.

Thanks in advance.
