differentiate between one of three different scenarios:
1. No init.
2. Path to init munged by an incorrect loader configuration.
3. Root file system not mounted.

originally done to track down yet another case of lost init, and is
not strictly necessary, but it seems more logical to have binaries in
/sbin than in /stand. Previously /sbin and /bin were symlinks to
/stand. Now /bin and /stand are symlinks to /sbin.
as a preprocessor variable only. This broke the build of ppp. This
problem still exists in the old-style directories.

only way to be sure the build works correctly is to do a 'make all'.
But with these changes, it's easier to test individual targets. In
particular, ensure that the vnode file systems are mounted before
writing to them.
Ensure that we don't get CVS directories on our floppies.
Use kgzip instead of kzip to compress the loader. This saves a few
kB.
Remove some test cruft.
The current offical Sendmail Inc. version uses /var/mail/ and when we upgrade
our repository to that version, we will get the change. It is best to make
the path change in 4.0-R (which may not have the latest Sendmail Inc. version,
than to change in mid-4.x stream when we may upgrade.

I added $FreeBSD$ whicle I was here. The patch wasn't usable anymore
due to its age so I adapted it.

MAKEDEV can now run (with /sbin/chown and /bin/chgrp, still) without
any /usr. The default PATH for MAKEDEV is now "/sbin:/bin" to prevent
against further spammage of /usr programs in MAKEDEV. In the event
of an emergency, the variable "MAKEDEVPATH" can be used to replace
PATH, but I don't know what that emergency could be.
Let me know if you have any problems. I've tested it as well as
I could, which basically means everything except for RocketPorts.
