This breaks rev.1.3 of sys/i386/boot/Makefile.inc and associated changes
to sys/i386/boot/*/Makefile.  BINDIR must be left pointing to /usr/mdec
for the a.out bootstraps, since we don't want cdboot or netboot in /boot
(especially 1.44MB of crud for cdboot), and we don't want the a.out and
the elf boot[12] to clobber each other in /boot (a.out wins for aout-to-elf
builds because it is installed last).

dosboot is not being maintained.  E.g., diffs (-c3) between its disklabe.h
and <sys/disklabel.h> are 20K.  Don't bother fixing cosmetic bugs in it.
OTOH, <sys/disklabel.h> still refers to /usr/mdec.
