Could you at least add a note to the appropriate READMSs pointing to it?

I know if you are building things on FreeBSD, you should read heir(7), but
most clueful folks I know start with READMEs wherever they work and might
miss heir(7). This gives them a pointer to the real trove and avoids
hurting folks with good habits.

Or am I just rationalizing my own previous mistakes? (^_^) - Jy@
