modify ape/make.
I was just waiting for this :-P
Please do NOT fuck with ape/make. As the paper says, APE has become more
of a tool to write conforming ANSI / POSIX code vs. porting the stuff to
Plan 9. Please don't take apes' virginity.
If people insist on inflicting gmake upon us, fine. I guess. But please
(please?) don't screw the ape: deposit it in /$cputype/bin/gmake instead.
And now that the camel is firmly in the tent, we might as well
create a <foo>/camel hierarchy to parallel <foo>/ape, for all the
camel cruft (i.e. /$cputype/camel/make vs. /$cputype/bin/gmake).
Then, people who want to ride camels through the desert can run bsh(1) to
obtain a suitably inhospitable environment. (bsh as in baking-hot shell,
although bs(1) seems like a reasonable alternative.)
