>Description:
This patch adds the release version and architecture of the system to the title of the main menu in sysinstall, as suggested by the ideas page. Having trouble keeping all those FreeBSD cd's apart certainly boosted my motivation to write this :)
Also, this patch adds the ability to display any sysctl variable in the title of a menu, and also in various other places with little extra effort.

>How-To-Repeat:
Burn many CD's of different FreeBSD versions, do not write anything on them.
>Fix:
Apply patch to sysinstall, rebuild all releases, throw your old cds away, burn new cds.
