MAKE_EBONES or somesuch should control builds with eBones.  Builds
with DES should be controlled by something else.

Being able to build with eBones but turn it off at run time would
be nice.  A system built with eBones expects it to be used.  passwd
defaults to changing the kerberos password for instance.

I think we need some more knobs.
