Inform that the prop_{array,dictionary}_send_syscall(3) change breaks

update both (proplib + quota2 executables) simultaneously when updating
a -current installation.

 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+20111001:
+       the prop_*_send_syscall() functions from proplib(3) have been
+       changed and their new version is not backward compatible with the old
+       one. So ensure that all consumers of these functions (currently:
+       quota2 code and its tests) are updated together with the new lib.

        sparc has been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any objdir or
        DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
