This patch makes four changes to the exim_install script:

1) Changes the test used to determine whether a file should be installed
   to cope with files which we "touch" to zero bytes for packaging
   purposes.

2) Causes an exim.sh startup script to be installed in the BSD-style
   ${PREFIX}/etc/rc.d

3) Causes the configure file to be installed as a sample only.  The
   administrator needs to rename this file to "activate" exim.

4) Changes the invocation of make-info to be less prone to fail on
   silly errors.  XXX Check that this is still necessary from time
   to time.
