The homebrew instructions were outdated - berkeley-db4 hasn't worked for months, based on the questions I'm seeing on Google/SO. So I added a section explaining how to install berkeley-db4 using homebrew and move on with your life. Thanks for the rest of the documentation!

When the libpath doesn't line up with the value from config.sub, we don't find
the correct path to boost's libs. This adds a hack to try another path before
giving up.
Should close#3219.

Removes the limits on number of pubkeys for P2SH CHECKMULTISIG outputs.
Previously with the 500 byte scriptSig limit there were odd restrictions
where even a 1-of-12 P2SH could be spent in a standard transaction(1),
yet multisig scriptPubKey's requiring more signatures quickly ran out of
scriptSig space.
From a "stuff-data-in-the-blockchain" point of view not much has changed
as with the prior commit now only allowing the dummy value to be null
the newly allowed scriptSig space can only be used for signatures. In
any case, just using more outputs is trivial and doesn't cost much.

Mined by BTC Guild.
redeemScripts >520bytes can't be spent due to the
MAX_SCRIPT_ELEMENT_SIZE limit; previously the addmultisigaddress and
createmultisig RPC calls would let you violate that limit unknowingly.
Also made the wallet code itself check the redeemScript prior to adding
it to the wallet, which in the (rare) instance that a user has added an
invalid oversized redeemScript to their wallet causes an error on
startup. The affected key isn't added to the wallet; other keys are
unaffected.
Previously if bitcoind is linked with an OpenSSL which is compiled
without EC support, this is seen as an assertion failure "pKey !=
NULL" at key.cpp:134, which occurs after several seconds. It is an
esoteric piece of knowledge to interpret this as "oops, I linked
with the wrong OpenSSL", and because of the delay it may not even
be noticed.
The new output is
: OpenSSL appears to lack support for elliptic curve cryptography. For
more information, visit
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/OpenSSL_and_EC_Libraries
: Initialization sanity check failed. Bitcoin Core is shutting down.
which occurs immediately after attempted startup.
This also blocks in an InitSanityCheck() function which currently only
checks for EC support but should eventually do more. See #4081.

Block 295,000 seems to meet the criteria of a reasonable timestamp and
no strange transactions. 295,000 is the current block height in the
bootstrap.dat torrent provided by jgarzik.

Fixes#4679.
This leaves us with only one candidate, checkip.dyndns.org.
GetMyExternalIP should be phased out as soon as possible.

Generally useless information. Only updates on connect time, not after
that. Peers can easily lie and the median filter is not effective in
preventing that.
In the past it was used for progress display in the GUI but
`CheckPoints::guessVerificationProgress` provides a better way that is now used.
It was too easy to mislead it. Peers do lie about it in practice, see issue #4065.
From the RPC, `getpeerinfo` gives the peer raw values, which are more
useful.
Cancelling the RPC acceptors can sometimes result in an error about
a bad file descriptor.
As this is the shutdown sequence we need to continue nevertheless,
ignore these errors, log a warning and proceed.
Fixes#4352.
The "Monospace" hint was added in Qt 4.8, and it works as intended as opposed
to "TypeWriter" which fails to load a font.

Make the instdate for lrelease etc deterministic. This should have been
part of 0.9.2. Luckily this doesn't affect the end product, it is just
a bit annoying.

Upgrade for https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20140605.txt
Just in case - there is no vulnerability that affects ecdsa signing or
verification.
The MITM attack vulnerability (CVE-2014-0224) may have some effect on
our usage of SSL/TLS.
As long as payment requests are signed (which is the common case), usage
of the payment protocol should also not be affected.
The TLS usage in RPC may be at risk for MITM attacks. If you have
`-rpcssl` enabled, be sure to update OpenSSL as soon as possible.

NodeSyncScore() should find the node which we recv data most recently, so put a negative sign to pnode->nLastRecv is indeed wrong.
Also change the return value type to int64_t.

Qt5 Removed the qt_mac_set_dock_menu function and left no replacement. It was
later re-added and deprecated for backwards-compatibility.
Qt5.2 adds the non-deprecated QMenu::setAsDockMenu(). Use that when possible.

Log the name of the error as well as the error code if a network problem
happens. This makes network troubleshooting more convenient.
Use thread-safe strerror_r and the WIN32 equivalent FormatMessage.
