Looks like it was intended as a minor (and pointless) optimisation to
remove a free() malloc() pair.
Make he comment about the stoppedJobs list more correct.
It isn't clear that it ever worked, if it did it has almost certainly
bitrotted in the last 12 years. I'm not even sure all the required
components were present.
I suspect it was written to attempt to use a 'farm' of diskless sun3s.
In any case the apparant random assignment fo jobs to other systems doesn't
actually seem like a good idea!
Things like 'distcc' han be used to help slow systems run native builds.
Removing this code also simplifies make, and should let me speed up some of
its processing - without worrying about bitrotting it further.
is not specified. This is because it prints getgid() and getgroups(). If the
getgid() is in the getgroups() set, it was printed twice. This is now detected
and the duplicate printing is avoided.
push a byte through the (now badly named) exit_pipe and call JobRestartJobs()
from the main code path when poll() wakes up.
Part of a plan to remove JobSigLock() and the zillions of system calls
it does.
hand side of the .WAIT, except when the recursive interpretation would
cause a cycle in the dependency graph.

condition on /tmp/: if creating the file list ($FILELIST) fails,
immediately exit with a non-zero result code. This fixes a bug
where, if the file list filled /tmp/, updatedb.sh would nevertheless
run for several minutes before it removed the file list as it quit.
wprintw(menu->mw, ftm, args) to generate the menu label.
Allows static menu labels to contain the current value (like a lot of the
dynamic menus do).
Correct width calculations, and bound menu table lookup.
This primary causes find to stop traversing the filesystem and
exit immediately if a previous condition was met. If no value is
specified, the exit value will be 0, else n. Note that other
primaries will be evaluated and acted upon before exiting.
Ok matt@, garbled@.
