I assume that last sentence was a rhetorical question, my comments
were intended as a joke.  Anyway, I've committed r22928 now, with
one paragraph for the common /dev/shm part (the DTD says that
xincludes can only contain one paragraph - possibly an included note
can contain more paragraphs, , but I want a separate paragraph for
the SHELL part, within the same note).

For the SHELL part I've kept to /bin/sh because we've used that
everywhere until now.

The mountpoint command is marked as "nodump".

I've probably pissed off someone be commenting the one-line entity
for the SHELL note in the js pages, and replacing that with the
two-part note.

For seamonkey the second part is hardcoded at the moment.  The
differnece should be that firefox and thunderbird refer to
prepending shell to the mach commands (sic, I wasn't clear if both
needed it when SHELL has not been exported), seamonkey refers to the
first make, and the JS pages refer to the configure command.
