7d732d1e4f Bugfix: nested *?+ in regexp at /usr/bin/makewhatis line 286
Submitted by: invalid opcode <coredump@nervosa.com>

makewhatis.local - start makewhatis(1) only for file systems
                   physically mounted on the system
Running makewhatis from /etc/weekly for rw nfs-mounted /usr may kill
your NFS server -- all clients start makewhatis at the same time!
So use this wrapper instead calling makewhatis directly.
