New Revision: 259936
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/259936

Log:
  Revert r252694 - which attempted to fix bit emulation for armv6/armv7.
  
  This seems to cause issues with jemalloc + {dhclient, sshd}.
  
  Thus, revert this for now until the root cause can be found and
  fixed.
  
  This should quieten some runtime problems with the Raspberry Pi.
