(2) The stock submit.cf specifally connects to "localhost." which
    should be less susceptible to being confused or looking confused.
(3) The smtp listener starts by default, if needed.  The setting in
    /etc/default/rc.conf is still "no", but rc.d/sendmail detects the
    default setting and will change it to yes if need is determined.

Need is defined as "nothing else seems to have been changed about the
mail configuration but we'd like locally originated and locally
destined mail to be delivered".  If you change, eg, mailer.conf to
point to postfix or some other MTA, sendmail will not start.

jdolecek cf43cdd268 g/c the MAKEDEV(.local)? substitution - it's not needed
generate the .Xr commands for device manpage crossreferences directly,
we no longer need to replace 'foo(4)' in the source MAKEDEV.tmpl

replace other gensub() calls with equivalent gsub(), and fix output
for fdc (we want 3 1/2", 5 1/4" - not 3 1/2``, 5 1/4'')

add target translation for 'random' -> rnd(4) and 'scsibus#' -> scsi(4),
and fix typo in opms entry

lukem f85d2d1c14 Use ${HOST_SH} instead of `sh'.
If necessary, pull in <bsd.sys.mk> to get the definition of HOST_SH;
Makefiles that pull in one of (most of) <bsd.*.mk> will get this anyway.
