Put them back in no library.  Putting them in libutil is what caused the
current round of bootstrapping problems.  The previous round didn't have
problems because install(1) had statically linked functions.

Changes can be limited to makefiles and unistd.h.  Add .PATH statements
to point to libc/gen instead of to ls and don't change any names back.
