5dc2695cfc I shouldn't have incremented PART_OFF; it was wrong and broke label
display to boot.  Also fix some various warning fluff while I'm in
here cleaning up.

73feefc8af Add 'custom' directory with significantly restructured build (now
using make instead of custom scripts) and two floppies instead of
one.  The resultant floppy can do everything that the individual
floppies (dial, net, install, isp, router) could do, modulo some bit
rot that has occurred since PicoBSD last compiled.  It also includes
all the programs on the fixit floppy, which could thus also die.

/bin currently contains the following files:

-sh             dump            ln              ns              sps

dd              gzip            msg             route           umount
dev_mkdb        hostname        mt              routed          vi
df              ifconfig        mv              rrestore        view

dhclient-script init            netstat         sed             w
disklabel       kget            newfs           sh              zcat
dmesg           kill            nfs             sleep

Structure is in place for using the same build for the other
directories, but I'm no longer sure we need this.  The current first
floppy will run fine by itself, but the size of a compressed kernel
has increased by nearly 50% since 3.2, and there's not much space for
anything useful on the remainder of the floppy.  The current method
creates a larger mfs and can read as many floppies as the user can
stand.  The footprint appears to be round 14 MB.
