Yeah, I forgot that there was a move in the sh-utils
build file, so I'm actually moving an even dozen.
Memory cells must really be going :-(
The rest come from pointing the fileutils install
at /bin, which I cannot do now that it's one big pkg.


Anyway, thanks for the explanation on how this works.
Now I guess we need to think of a way around it. We don't
do any post-build packaging, the project in question is 
derived from the Linux From Scratch scheme, which builds
from the tarballs and simply produces a directory tree; 
I guess you could characterize it as the packaging at
the source, rather than binary level.
