  Modified files:
    release/picobsd/build picobsd 
  Log:
  A somewhat large change of this script.
  
  From the user's perspective:
   * everything is now built outside the source tree (more precisely,
     in `pwd`/builddir-${name}/ ) except for the kernel config file(s)
     which still need to be copied into src/sys/i386/conf because of
     "config" limitations. I am not sure if there is an easy way
     to get away from this without changing "config" or replicating
     some part of the source tree.
     This is really the only change that most users should worry about,
     but it is a good one.
  
   * if you do cross-compiles (using "picobsd --src somedir/src [--init] ... ")
     then the libraries and include directories etc.  are searched/created
     in "somedir/usr" ;
  
   * you can do most things (basically build the kernel and the crunched
     binary and the filesystem trees) without root privileges. You need
     privileges to use mdconfig/vnconfig to create the actual MFS and
     floppy image, unfortunately.
  
   * the -v option now prints some diagnostic but does not stop for
     user input at each step. You need to specify -v -v to have the
     old behaviour.
  
  Internally, the script has been reshuffled quite a bit to support
  the above features. Many shell variables have been renamed or
  made local in an effort to avoid undesired side effects. There is
  a somewhat better error handling in case something goes wrong.
