a/sysvinit-scripts-2.1-noarch-18.txz:  Rebuilt.
  rc.cpufreq: for CPUs that use intel_pstate, default to the performance
  governor. The performance governor provides power savings while avoiding
  the ramp-up lag caused by using "ondemand", which defaults to "powersave"
  on these systems. Thanks to EdGr.
d/bison-3.1-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
