I've restructured my source tree after re-installing the sources for the
pacthkit and I've got a few queries.

Firstly, I've moved games, etc and share from othersrc to their proper
place in /usr/src -- I just prefer it that way.

I then tried to do a make clean from /usr/src to see if everything was
as it should be and I found a few anomalies.

Firstly -- in /usr/src/usr.bin/groff the makefile references a sub-dir
grotty which doesn't exist.

Secondly -- in /usr/src/usr.bin/tn3270/api/makefile there's a reference
to 386bsd.lib.mk. This doesn't exist, I assume it should just be
bsd.lib.mk

Thirdly -- in /usr/src/share/doc/smm/Makefile there's an entry for the
10.newsop directory in SUBDIR. This dir only contains one file tmac.n
so obviously the makefile recursion fails. What is this tmac.n anyway?

Ok, so the above are a little petty but I was having a bit of a tidy up
and I just felt they were loose ends. Is there anyone bored enough to
tell what the above are?


On another note:

I noticed when running make clean that the makefiles still try and
remove core files. I've been wondering for some time if there was
a way of cleaning the system of core files. On a SUN I just run a find
job but of course with the new core.filename system this doesn't work.

Anyone have any solutions to this problem. When did the new
core.filename system get introduced since the makefiles haven't
been modified to take account of the changes.
