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.

15 times faster than the existing sh script.

069fcad2d9 Clean up some foreign makefiles a bit, attempting to handle .sh files
more like binaries.  This is hard to do using a general rules because
the natural `.sh:' rule has a null suffix and null suffixes are broken.
(With 1.1.5's make they sometimes work and sometimes cause core dumps.
2.0's make has a botched fixed and they never work.)

b48301f54f Changed the Makefiles for catman and makewhatis that the output from the
sed goes into an obj dir, if it exists, instead of the src dir.

21eb6c6e63 New manpage compression support. Only one macro controls compression
now, DO_COMPRESS.  This controls whether or not catpages are compressed or
not (on by default, since little else uses the catpages and those few things
that do can always configure in a `zmore' in place of more or something, and
saving space is more important, IMHO).

Uncompression support is now on by default since that's the only way to support
mixed-mode environments.  If you don't like it, just don't compress your man
pages and it won't be used! :-).  Supports gzip.  You can also compress
the man pages themselves (or gzip them) now and it will work.
