  Log:
  Remove a reference to the `compat.linux.osrelease' sysctl.
  
  As Alexander Leidinger has pointed out:
  
  "glibc behaves differently based upon the value of it. It may refuse to
  do anything if it doesn't understand the value.  Changing the value of
  osrelease is only advised in experimental situations (like in
  http://wiki.freebsd.org/linux-kernel) and may result even in kernel
  panics."
  
  I've replaced a reference to `compat.linux.osrelease' with a safer
  example, for setting `security.bsd.see_other_uids=0', which we already
  use as a sample /etc/sysctl.conf entry anyway.
