I've pushed out eight updates and one new package to the "bloody" repo for OmniOS.

The new package is network/service/isc-dhcp.  It is a work in progress.  It provides these SMF services:

	network/service/dhcp:ipv4
	network/service/dhcp:ipv6
	network/service/dhcrelay:ipv4
	network/service/dhcrelay:ipv6

This is the bloody distro, so these are very rough, and in some cases untested.  I expect to deliver more configuration properties for all of these prior to the next stable release.  I would appreciate some feedback here.

Speaking of feedback, I know NOBODY tried mozilla-NSS (or at least asked my why it wasn't actually updated), because I botched something about it in the last update -- namely missing an update to the incorporation/jeos/omnios-userland.

Highlights of this update to bloody include:

Userland
	- ISC DHCP  (need feedback)
	- REAL update to NSS and NSPR (also need feedback)
	- Git is now at version 2.0 (I'll be using this myself, but more feedback is nice)

And from illumos and illumos-omnios
	- zdb can now dump all metadata
	- pkcs11 now behaves better post-fork (this often tripped up Jenkins)
	- Embedded-data block pointers ("zero block compression")
	- Fix for the tricky Illumos 4390, which fixes I/O errors during dataset deletion from corrupting the space map.

Happy updating!
Dan
