What's the use of most of what is in secure without a built eBones?
In fact our secure telnet did absolutely nothing for us until it
was recently fixed to work with eBones.  Yet, many makefiles use
the "MAKE_EBONES" variable to make decisions on how to build things.
If anything, there sould be a single variable referenced in
/usr/src/Makefile for non exportable material that simply exludes the
right subdirectories.
