Changes of interest
o unit-tests: use private TMPDIR to avoid errors from other users
o avoid strdup in mkTempFile
o always use vfork
o job.c: do not create empty shell files in jobs mode
reduce unnecessary calls to waitpid
o cond.c: fix debug output for comparison operators in conditionals
Quite a lot of churn on style, but lots of
good work refactoring complicated functions
and lots more unit-tests.
Thanks mostly to rillig at NetBSD
Some interesting entries from ChangeLog
o .MAKE.{UID,GID} represent uid and gid running make.
o allow env var MAKE_OBJDIR_CHECK_WRITABLE=no to skip writable
checks in InitObjdir. Explicit .OBJDIR target always allows
read-only directory.
o add more unit tests for META MODE

Other significant changes:
o new read-only variable .SHELL which provides the path of the shell
used to run scripts (as defined by the .SHELL target).
o variable parsing detects more errors.
o new debug option -dl: LINT mode, does the equivalent of := for all
variable assignments so that file and line number are reported for
variable parse errors.
Key changes include reduced noise at end of failed build log
and avoid evaluation of unnecessary terms in conditionals.
In META MODE; a target flagged .META is out-of-date if meta file
is missing
MFC after: 1 week
of FreeBSD's make by setting WITH_BMAKE. The WITH_BMAKE build makes it
easy for people to switch while working out the kinks -- think ports
tree here. The option will be removed in due time.
