Build ntp_adjtime.o and ntp_gettime.o so that xntpd compiles.
...
Don't add to POBJS or SOBJS. bsd.lib.mk does it. Some objects were
duplicated.
Don't add to CLEANFILES. bsd.lib.mk does it. Some objects were
quadruplicated.
Define variables that are only used once close to where they are
used.
The ifdefs for avoiding building of profiled/shared objects when
NOPROFILE/NOPIC are set were not actually committed. The ifdefs
belong in bsd.lib.mk anyway.

Undo some of Bruce's ``clean-up''. Don't be so damned verbose.

Don't build .po's if NOPROFILE is defined.
...
Don't build .so's if NOPIC is defined.
Use ${ECHO} instead of `echo' so that `make -s' is fairly quiet.

First crack at making libc work with the new make macros. It compiles on
...
my machine, and a simple static (genassym) and shared (sysctl) executable
both work. Still to be done: RPCand YP merge.
