Replacing the contents of mkdirhier and mkdirhier.sh with "mkdir -p $*"

Does anyone know why we don't just call "mkdir -p" normally? Are there
portability problems with it?
I believe 'mkdir -p' was not supported by some old unices, but AFAICT it
seems to be supported by everything we build on these days. It probably
wouldn't hurt to use it instead of mkdirhier.
