Yes, that's it!  The man page gets installed in ${MANDIR}${SECTION} is
why this work; it knows the SECTION is 8.  Duh.


BTW, should this program go in ${PREFIX}/bin or ${PREFIX}/sbin?  I guess
since it's supposed to be a "secure rm" bin is the correct place.

That didn't appear to do anything the first time, but now that I've
done it CORRECTLY it seems to work like a charm.  Stick it with a fork,
it's DONE.  I can make; make install; make deinstall; make reinstall;
make clean and have nothing puke.  Now maybe I can get off my butt
and make port kits for a couple of other things I have lying about.

Thanks, guys, as usual you've burned through the fog quickly.  I'd have
been done even quicker, but I spent last night and today doing REAL
construction work on my new office, so I can dedicate more time to 
hacking FreeBSD once winter gets here.
