Got a native slackware packaging rule set up.

Here's the first package:

ftp://john-l.cwru.edu/pub/dev/abiword/abiword-0.7.13.slp
md5sum: 78d7f3aa07b546d365d62569931e3a36

Quick question: I know that we've been using the *.slp extension in the
past to indicate a slackware package file, but *.tgz or *.tar.gz are the
standard extentions.  What happens is that when installing the package,
the log file is saved as /var/log/packages/abiword-0.7.13.slp, as
opposed to /var/log/packages/abiword-0.7.13, which is what usually
happens.  Do we want to ignore this (slightly) sloppy behavior?

Attached is the diff for the Makefile in $(ABI_ROOT)/abi/src/pkg/linux/,
and a tarball of the added directory, $(ABI_ROOT)/abi/src/pkg/linux/slp,
and files contained therein.  Let me know if everything works for
everybody.

Take care,

        John
