now that their size is only two pointers. This eliminates a lot of calls
to Lst_Init and from there to malloc together with many calls to
Lst_Destroy (in places where the list is obviously empty). This also
reduces the chance to leave a list uninitilized so we can remove more
NULL pointer checks and probably eliminates a couple of memory leaks.
and the sizeof operator, missing empty lines, void casts, extra empty lines.

rid of a lot of uneccesary casts and temporary variables that have just
obfuscated the code. This also let's us implement a couple of the one-
liner list functions as macros (the first one is Lst_IsEmpty) and
simplify life once we start to throw consts on the code.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
problems in the process:
1. Quoting should work properly now. In particular, Chet's reported bash
make problem has gone away.
2. A lot of memory that just wasn't being free'd after use is now freed.
This should cause make to take up a LOT less memory when dealing with
archive targets.
3. Give proper credit to Adam de Boor in a number of files.
