d33a962d07 Move /etc/defaults/make.conf to /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf as 
discussed on the arch@ mailinglist (after repo-copy).

sys.mk will .error if it finds /etc/defaults/make.conf but include
it anyways (this is the same behaviour as with the make.conf.local
removal).

/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf has BDEFLAGS commented out now,
since it's only an example file.

Adjust all textes that talk about make.conf or defaults/make.conf to
match the new situation.

821213b97f Remove whitespace after %. The whitespace was causing strfile to not see 
the % string section break and thus fortune was producing a rather large
multi-fortune fortune message.

9070692e9d A good sysadmin always carries around a few feet of fiber. If he ever 
gets lost, he simply drops the fiber on the ground, waits ten minutes,
then asks the backhoe operator for directions.

Alas, the first one is a repeat in a slightly different format and
ought to be removed (or the other copy). I'll leave that to more
enterprising souls, though (Cthulhu loves enterprising souls).

Fortunes that a sufficiently twisted mind could perceive as offensive
have been moved to murphy-o.  Thanks to the submitter for reviewing
these fortunes.

Also, fix a couple whitespace formatting errors and typos.

Note that the Klingon joke has a 12-point version in the
-chat list, mesg-id: <19990717120618.C269@marder-1> (thanks to
DES and to submitter doug@gorean).  Also, note that the following
people need to learn to double-space after a period: <DougB@gorean.org>,

and <rsidd@physics.iisc.ernet.in>.
