If you've already upgraded, it's too late to test the patch because
you won't execute the code in question. Do I really need to send you
a patch to change one word in /usr/src/usr.bin/make/main.c?! Please take
a few moments to have a look for "unknown" in that file. Sigh.

If there is someone with a scratch disk on which they can install 2.2.8
(or 2.2.7 or 2.2.6) and do a `make aout-to-elf' and report the results,
we could get this sorted out. I don't have the hardware to do that
anymore. Any list-lurkers want to help out?
