This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
get installed.
The `install' target should only be overridden when the default one would
do something wrong and you're too lazy to fix the default one.
- the .gz files are no longer used as intermediate files, it's in a pipe
now. (gunzip normally deleted them anyway, but this should not hurt)
- I accidently left a -p arg to install from testing. Bruce says it should
be ${COPY} instead, but almost everything else in the tree uses plain -c
anyway.
- Use "LINKS=" or two identical files are installed sepeately instead of
as links (doh!)
- Use "LIB..." instead of "BIN..." for install permissions. Note that we
still use bsd.prog.mk, not bsd.lib.mk because bsd.lib.mk has problems
(it can't install a library unless it compiles it).
- Define LIBCOMPATDIR in Makefile.inc instead of using BINDIR.

- A major 11th hour, last second, untested commit!
Build some infrastructure to clean up the compat lib distributions, and
also allow them to be installed from the source tree rather than having
to to and get the tarballs from freefall or a CD. Some tweaks to
/etc/make.conf are in the pipeline to enable it.
This came about because it became apparent that we'd have to change the
compat21.tgz tarball to fix the NIS problem with 2.1.x binaries. Since
it's tar..gz.uu, doing this would have caused a huge repository change
and we may as well try and fix it once and for all. Now, adding/removing
libraries should have MUCH less repository impact.
