edf0e5b3f8 Correct some man page xrefs, and some other minor changes to bring some
man pages up to mdoc guidelines and fix some minor formatting glitches.
Also fixed a number of man pages to not abuse the .Xr macro to
display functions and path names and a lot of other junk.

03e5b81db4 Rewrite and merge some bogus makefiles to create Makefile.shprog. Just
include this in the old makefiles.

I intended to fix only the private maninstall rule but found a lot of
other bogons and bugs:
- strong resistance to installing the program anywhere other than
  ${DESTDIR}/usr/bin (first, ../../Makefile.inc was not included.
  ../Makefile/inc was redundantly included instead.  Second, /usr/bin
  was hard coded).
- the owner, group and permissions were hard coded.
- the man page was installed twice.
- MANDEPEND wasn't necessary.
- calculations to determine the obj directory weren't necessary.
- there were unnecessary private rules for depend, rcsfreeze and tags.
  We don't support the rcsfreeze target.
- there was an extra, bogus, rule for `all'.

The final version uses suffix rules to eliminate the remaining verboseness
involving directories (${.CURDIR}) and to potentially allow multiple
shell programs in one directory.

01e694c2e2 Wolfram's replacement for the oldish ugly catman(1) program. The new
one is much more intelligent, not only that it would accept multiple
man page locations, it also behaves like ``make'' in that it will only
deal with cat pages that are out of date (by default).

Wolfram also wrote a man page for it.

069fcad2d9 Clean up some foreign makefiles a bit, attempting to handle .sh files
more like binaries.  This is hard to do using a general rules because
the natural `.sh:' rule has a null suffix and null suffixes are broken.

2.0's make has a botched fixed and they never work.)

21eb6c6e63 New manpage compression support. Only one macro controls compression
now, DO_COMPRESS.  This controls whether or not catpages are compressed or
not (on by default, since little else uses the catpages and those few things
that do can always configure in a `zmore' in place of more or something, and
saving space is more important, IMHO).

Uncompression support is now on by default since that's the only way to support
mixed-mode environments.  If you don't like it, just don't compress your man
pages and it won't be used! :-).  Supports gzip.  You can also compress
the man pages themselves (or gzip them) now and it will work.
