As part of my work to get the pkg(5) gate generating IPS packages natively,
I needed some sort of protocmp. The ON validate_pkg tool does more than we
need, and you can't turn those bits off, so you end up with unquenchable
warnings about paths not being right (we move some stuff around in the
packages), modes not being just so, etc. ON's more dictatorial about how
things get installed in the proto area, while we're following a more
natural userland model, where we do a bunch of pkgmogrify fixups.
But we package a couple of hardlinks, and the current directory bundle code
treats hardlinks in arbitrary order. This wad allows us to specify which
pathnames should be treated as files, leaving all the other names for the
inode to be hardlinks, rather than simply taking as a file the first one
the filesystem gives us.
