compatability-geared util.c. These are things like message printers
and the PrintAddr function for traversing lists. Other general-purpose
utilities inside make(1) can go here, in time.
variable length arguments to a macro. Bump version as this makes DEBUG
statements *always* go to stderr rather than sometimes stdout. There are
a few stragglers, which I will take care of as soon as I can. Mostly these
relate to the need-for-death-of some of the remote job code.
Nearby stylistic nits and XXX added/fixed where appropriate.
it to make.h so both dir.c and util.c can use it, although bde didn't
particularly like this part of the idea, IMO it's cleaner than it was.

to override @-prefixed commands in Makefiles. It is especially useful for
debugging ports and/or complex Makefiles in such a manner that is basically
a last resort, but is quite effective if the output is well-handled.
I'll update the manpage after dinner. ;-)

for BSD less than 4.4 where sys/cdefs.h DNE but can be simulated with
param.h. Unfortunately, the additional include did little to actually
improve portability since we've lost portability in several other chunks
of make code (err(), sysctlbyname(), probable more).
Partly submitted by: bde
that -E only operates for a specified variable. Useful since the -e option
will often pull-in many unwanted variable overrides (esp. in a make world
situation). Uses include overriding BINOWN (which cannot be done by normal
methods or through abuses of MAKEFLAGS) or likely for ports to honour CFLAGS
(provided they're running on a system whose make(1) has this option).
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
- Add the .PHONY, .PARALLEL, and .WAIT directives
- Added the -B and -m commandline flags
- misc. man page cleanups
- numerous job-related enhancements
- removed unused header file (bit.h)
- add util.c for functions not found in other envs.
- and a few coordinated whitespace changes

problems in the process:
1. Quoting should work properly now. In particular, Chet's reported bash
make problem has gone away.
2. A lot of memory that just wasn't being free'd after use is now freed.
This should cause make to take up a LOT less memory when dealing with
archive targets.
3. Give proper credit to Adam de Boor in a number of files.
