Our standard "xterm" termcap entry supports colour, so this tip is redundant. As it happens, "xterm-color" has just been an alias for "xterm" since src/share/termcap/termcap.src 1.131 in September 2002.

The ../tools/do_sort script could not differentiate between a few very slightly diffrent versions of tcsh prompts, so restore the 2 that were lost, and consolidate them all in a way that will prevent them from being lost again.

This is a massive cleanup of the fortune files, including removal of many duplicates, formatting/whitespace fixes, spelling fixes, and a host of others. Note: No fortunes were intentionally removed (other than duplicates) as part of this cleanup. In removing dupes I tried to be generous in not removing similarly worded fortunes that had even slightly different punch lines.
Duplicates were resolved as follows (in this order): * + limerick -> limerick * + fortunes-o.real -> fortunes-o.real * + fortunes2-o -> fortunes2-o * + zippy -> zippy murphy + fortunes -> fortunes
In correcting spelling I've tried to leave colloquial variations (especially British'isms) intact, as well as to not "correct" errors that are part of the joke.
In fortunes and fortunes2-o I combined a couple of fortunes that were adjacent to each other that seemed like they should have originally been combined, and split a couple that seemed like they should have originally been split.
Miscellaneous: 1. Fixed underlining 2. Capitalized proper names 3. Removed quotation marks from "freestanding" quotes for consistency 4. Added quotation marks to QOTD fortunes that needed them 5. Corrected or added many attributions 6. Removed apostrophes from trailing 's' that are plural, not possessive 7. Updated the path to fortune stuff included in some of the jokes 8. Updated several fortunes to their original version, and added attribution 9. Split up compound words that ispell tripped over

Move /etc/defaults/make.conf to /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf as discussed on the arch@ mailinglist (after repo-copy).
sys.mk will .error if it finds /etc/defaults/make.conf but include it anyways (this is the same behaviour as with the make.conf.local removal).
/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf has BDEFLAGS commented out now, since it's only an example file.
Adjust all textes that talk about make.conf or defaults/make.conf to match the new situation.
