Okay, it turns out our reactivate script already has enough hooks in
it for a letter bump (we didn't strip out that support, since it's
sufficiently conditionalized on the existence of
/srvd/{.rvdinfo,auto_update} that it doesn't cause a problem for us.

My plans are:

	* Go over the volume setup and make sure everything's
	  replicated properly.  Move the contents of srvd.77.1 into
	  its own volume.  Create a non-replicated volume for
	  /srvd/patch.

	* Update the installation documentation.  Test an installation
	  according to the new documentation.

	* Remove everyone's write access to the system packs (except
	  /srvd/patch) and to /mit/netbsd/release/netbsd-1.1.

	* Declare the 1.1 release to be in production.

	* Blow away the stuff in /afs/sipb/system/i386_nbsd1 that
	  won't be referred to by existing workstations.  Turn emul,
	  usr/andrew, and usr/X11R6 into symlinks to the new system
	  packs; leave usr/athena alone.  Point usr/src at our
	  -current source tree.

	* Write upgrade documentation.
