what was the compelling idea behind all of the schg flags in /usr/obj?

this prevents doing a buildworld or clean over nfs mounted /usr/src
and /usr/obj.

is there a way to remove these flags from the source tree or to pass
them as a valid nfs attribute?

to give an example layout, from this laptop, where space is at a
premium:

Filesystem       1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/wd0s2a          63503    16125    42298    28%    /
/dev/wd0s2f          63503    12926    45497    22%    /home

/dev/wd0s2h         848855   200152   580795    26%    /usr
/dev/wd0s2e          63503    21456    36967    37%    /var
procfs                   4        4        0   100%    /proc
/usr/src@argus     2963566  1804778   921704    66%    /usr/src
/usr/obj@argus     2963566  1804778   921704    66%    /usr/obj
/misc@argus        1416798  1025906   277550    79%    /misc
/usr/ports@argus   2963566  1804778   921704    66%    /usr/ports

the schg flags make keeping this laptop -current a pain in the butt.
unnecessarily so.

i propose that the flags be removed from the source and object dirs,
it is much easier a fix than doing two seperate cvsups daily, and
buying another toshiba hd.  i'm sure many will concur.

munging flags is no substitute for proper ownership and mode, which
can achieve the same results.
