Cleanup of the intro(4) manpages, suggested by ericj@
Among other things: - keep phrasing consistent across arches - put "see also" and "history" sections at the end - add history sections to i386 which lacks it - name gdt and ubsec on i386 (.It nothing is bad) - try to improve the nice look of the supported device list. - remove "unsupported device" section (sparc only) and "supported systems" which is largealy out of date for, say, alpha, and completely off topic. - correct /usr/adm/messages reference left in hp300 (gasp) - provide intro(4) for sparc64. Left to do: - update supported device listings (even, create one for alpha). - sprinkle .Tn macros where needed. I wouldn't mind some help on this.

-Support for older PREP style machines has been removed; lack of availability

+Network interfaces are indirectly accessed through the interprocess

+and the appropriate device or network interface driver is then compiled
+into the system. When the resultant system is booted, the

+and, if found, enable the software support for it.
