Small unimportant typo in share/mk/bsd.README:

It's fairly difficult to make the BSD .mk files work when you're building
multiple programs in a single directory.  It's a lot easier split up the
programs than to deal with the problem.

"It's a lot easier split up the" should be "It's a lot easier to split up the" :)

 The file .depend in the source directory is expected to contain dependencies
 for the source files.  This file is read automatically by make after reading
