Log Message:
Changes 2.4.5:
* Fixes for Linux procstat-based CPU utilization on newer kernels
  from Andrew Gallatin.
* Fix for a TCP_RR hang from Michael Shuldman
* Compilation cleanups for MingW cnd MSDOS (djgpp) ourtesy of Gisle Vanem.
* Changes to enable compilation and building of netperf for
  VMware. Kudos to the person who did the first port, I will be happy
  to name that person when told it is OK :)
* Fixes from Adam Bidema for launching netserver children when the
  path to netserver.exe is very long.
* For the first time, netperf2 has a dependency, albeit optional, on
  another non-base-os bit of code - libsmbios under Linux.
* Fixes for BSD CPU utilization to deal with different BSD variants
  using different types.
* The "omni" suite has been added on an experimental basis.
* Coming along for the ride are some new platform specific files to
  determine the probable egress interface for each end of a test, as
  well as driver information for that interface.
* The UDP_RR test now understands the global -f option to change
  output units.  It also understands the -B option to tag
  results. Courtesy of Alexander Duyck.
* A fix has been added for hanging UDP_RR tests under Windows.
* Fixes for Solaris sendfilev usage.
* A TCP_MSS test has been added which will report the MSS for a data
  connection setup as if the test were a TCP_STREAM test.
* The width of the confidence interval can be specified in fractions
  of a percent for the confidence of a clean, close, comfortable
  calculation. :)
* Honor the global -B option in a TCP_SENDFILE test.
* Correct the sense of Send/Recv in the banner of a TCP_MAERTS test.
