  Maintenance and updates
  =======================
  1. Various improvements to the mtree (-U) feature:
  a. Seperate the notion of directory and file (user can override db path)
  b. Only check for the existence of the mtree file if -U is set
  c. Use mktemp to create the new version of the file
  d. More safely install the new file
  e. Standardize error messages a bit
  2. Remove the last of the MAKEDEV stuff (RIP)
  
  New Features
  ============
  1. Switch to using the top level (e.g., /usr/src) Makefile, and specify
  that we should use the *.mk files from the source directory instead of
  the installed versions. [1][2] This allows easier cross builds and
  simplifies (or in some cases permits) upgrading.
  2. Check for the deprecated 'nodev' option in /etc/fstab [3]
  3. Add support for the IGNORE_FILES variable [4] and deprecate IGNORE_MOTD
  accordingly.
  4. Before installing a file check to make sure that the target does not
  already exist as a directory [5]
  5. Check to be sure that the file installed and error out if not
