Also minor cleanup of dependencies in conf/files that I bogusly added

This should fix the requirement that make depend be done starting from

depend is still required if you want the proper .o's to be recompiled.

for possible buffer overflow problems. Replaced most sprintf()'s
with snprintf(); for others cases, added terminating NUL bytes where
appropriate, replaced constants like "16" with sizeof(), etc.
These changes include several bug fixes, but most changes are for
maintainability's sake. Any instance where it wasn't "immediately
obvious" that a buffer overflow could not occur was made safer.

alpha, operations involving non-finite numbers or denormalised numbers
or operations which should generate such numbers will cause an arithmetic
exception. For programs which follow some strict code generation rules,
the kernel trap handler can then 'complete' the operation by emulating
the faulting instruction.
To use software completion, a program must be compiled with the arguments
'-mtrap-precision=i' and '-mfp-trap-mode=su' or '-mfp-trap-mode=sui'.
Programs compiled in this way can use non-finite and denormalised numbers
at the expense of slightly less efficient code generation of floating
point instructions. Programs not compiled with these options will receive
a SIGFPE signal when non-finite or denormalised numbers are used or
generated.

SRM laugh in our faces - but it was upset at boot1 which was not touched

What this does is to steal the last three slots from the nine spare longs
in the bootinfo_v1 struct to pass the module base pointer through.

If this does not work, it needs to be beaten into shape pronto. Otherwise
it should be backed out before 3.0.
