decide whether to make kernel modules: set MKKMOD to no for evbppc.
Use this in etc/Makefile to decide whether to do the "modules"
obsolete sets. Move the ./var/db/obsolete/modules entry from the
"mi" to the "module.mi" file set.
Fixes the build for evbppc.

makes {MK,HAVE_}BINUTILS consistent with {MK,HAVE_}{GCC,GDB}.
Allow MKBFD to defines MKBINUTILS as a backwards compatibility hook.
Update the sets lists and add conditionals for lib{bfd,opcodes}.
- we now only create them when building X11, and only create the ones
we need (X11R6 xor X11R7)
- all these subdirs are now in the xbase set
- move the logic for running mtree into etc/mtree/Makefile
- split NetBSD.dist into 3 files, and have the build and postinstall handle
creating a possibly merged one. we still have a single installed file
called "NetBSD.dist".
INSTALL_DIR would want to write to the metalog, and it can't do that
if the metalog is inside DESTDIR but DESTDIR doesn't yet exist.
This allows some XXX comments to be removed.
- introduce X11FLAVOUR to choose src/x11 vs src/external/mit/xorg
for the X11 to build if MKX11=yes is set. it takes the values
of either Xorg or XFree86.
- default to Xorg on alpha, i386, macppc, shark, sparc and sparc64
- remove MKXORG_WITH_XSRC_XSERVER, unused and never useful
can't find the el-torito boot image with the old syntax. This can be
fixed by removed the leading "i386/" from the -b argument, but then
the mkisofs from the current cdrtools-2.01 package won't find the boot image.
Change the graf-point specifications so that a trailing / terminates
the grafted directories. This way both versions of mkisofs can find the
boot loader.
relies on mkisofs to create bootable ISO image. macppc should also be there,
but it seems the code to make an iso bootable never got added in etc.macppc/
human procedures) breaking because they assume it's enough to copy
MAKEDEV fom one place to another.
Let MAKEDEV return after defining shell functions but before doing any
real work, if MAKEDEV_AS_LIBRARY is set.
Let MAKEDEV.local load MAKEDEV as a function library via
"MAKEDEV_AS_LIBRARY=1 . MAKEDEV".
use by both MAKEDEV and MAKEDEV.local. This allows MAKEDEV.local
to accept the same command line arguments as MAKEDEV.
The installed MAKEDEV.subr is generated from MAKEDEV.subr.tmpl.
Replace the licence on MAKEDEV.local with a NetBSD licence, since I
rewrote the entire file.

Per tron@'s suggestion.
This way we get consistent messages along the development process. Otherwise,
STABLE could carry no message while a RC could, disappearing again after the
real formal release. With this change only formal releases do not carry any
special message in motd.
