actually NOT '.' and '..'. Apparently this isn't the case when accessing
a directory via XFS over NFS on SGI systems. Since I don't have access to
an environment like that, this will sit out in -current for at least six
weeks. However, the patch proposed by the submitter seems acceptable, so
I've decided to commit it to the tree, in the hope that it will solve some
problems without bringing up others.

but allows for regex. I removed NO_REGEX since no one could give a reason
to have it, and since we don't use make in bootstrap tools, it's not needed.
This is mostly added to synch up with NetBSD/OpenBSD so as to eliminate
roadblocks in the OpenPackages project (see http://www.openpackages.org/).
It's also quite useful, and costs us only about 3 kilobytes of space.

to override @-prefixed commands in Makefiles. It is especially useful for
debugging ports and/or complex Makefiles in such a manner that is basically
a last resort, but is quite effective if the output is well-handled.
I'll update the manpage after dinner. ;-)

make(1) uses sysctlbyname() to find out if it is running on a PC98
machine. This check has been added on 1998/9/9. The MIB variable was
added on 1998/8/31. At that time __FreeBSD_version was 300003. So,
only perform the check *if* __FreeBSD_version is defined and if it's
greater than 300003.
For the record: sysctlbyname was added on 1997/5/30 so this change
automaticly handles that...
It appears that make fails to read the global symbol table of the archive file,
making it think that the library needs to be rebuilt.

Schiffer now, which I consider a definate improvement. We're also a little
more subtle about saying that VPATH is for backward(s) compatibility.

improve portability since we've lost portability in several other chunks
of make code (err(), sysctlbyname(), probable more).

"Make no longer properly parses archive files, so using archive members
as make targets, as described in PSD:12 section 4.2, does not work."

that -E only operates for a specified variable. Useful since the -e option
will often pull-in many unwanted variable overrides (esp. in a make world
situation). Uses include overriding BINOWN (which cannot be done by normal
methods or through abuses of MAKEFLAGS) or likely for ports to honour CFLAGS
(provided they're running on a system whose make(1) has this option).
