When merged, this will be used to replace the ugly upgrade_checks
hacks in src/Makefile.
Version has the RYYYYMMDDX format, where R is from RELENG_<R> and
X allows for 10 distinguishable changes per day.

support. I've been building world with these changes for months w/o
ill effect. I've also managed to build the cross tool chain for MIPS
with these patches.
Please note that the extent to which these patches work is largely
dictated by how well our tool chains support the cross compilation.
Building alpha binaries on i386 doesn't work. Supposedly building
i386 binaries on alpha does work, but I've not verified it with these
patches, however.
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

Special thanks to Christos Zoulas <christos@netbsd.org>
for help in the merge. A 'diff -ur' between Net and
FreeBSD now only contains sccsid-related diffs. :)

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.
