915168b6f7 RETURN VALUES is for sections 2, 3 and 9, but here in section 1 man page,
DIAGNOSTICS should be used instead.

bebefbb98e * A comment in apropos.sh contains the misspelled word
"locailzed"; it should read "localized".

        *  The "test" operator can be a bit dangerous (e.g., if
           a newbie writes a script named "test" and has it call
           "apropos", which calls "test, ...).

        *  In its use as "whatis", apropos formats the first
           line of the output differently than the following
           lines.  Specifically, it leaves out all but one of
           the spaces that precede the dash in the first line.

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.

881e8e1839 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.

7a562692a6 Use standard clean, cleandir and obj targets.
Don't use $@.

Uniformize the man Makefiles for shell scripts.  It should't take such
large Makefiles to install one script and one man page each.
