Thanks. Patch attached.

- synced with dash 0.4.21
- better handle trap "cmds..." SIGINT (strange, i make bad hack for ash
and cmdedit, but this work only with this...)
- may be haven`t problem with Ctrl-D
the busybox menuconfig triggered my "inacceptable number of spelling mistakes"
upper level, so I decided to make a patch ;-)
I also improved some wording to describe some things in a better way.
Many thanks for an incredible piece of software!

The construct certain vintages of GCC (the one I have trouble
with is 3.2.3) have trouble with looks like the following:
static struct st a;
static struct st *p = &a;
struct st { int foo; };
static void init(void) { a.foo = 0; }
The problem disappears if we move the struct declaration up to
let the compiler know the shape of the struct before the first
definition uses it, like this:
struct st { int foo; }; /* this has been moved up */
static struct st a;
static struct st *p = &a;
static void init(void) { a.foo = 0; }
"If the shell is compiled with -DJOBS, this is all fine -- find wasn't
stopped (it was killed), so it correctly uses WTERMSIG instead of WSTOPSIG.
However, if the shell _isn't_ compiled with -DJOBS (which it isn't in d-i),
only WSTOPSIG is used, which extracts the high byte instead of the low
byte from the status code. Since the status code is 13 (SIGPIPE), "st"
suddenly gets the value 0, which is equivalent to SIGEXIT. Thus, ash prints
out "EXIT" on find's exit."
unless it had #!/bin/sh in the first line
"It correctly locates the script, tries to execute it via execve which
fails. After that it tries to hand it over to /bin/sh which fails too,
since ash
- neither provides the absolute pathname to /bin/sh
- nor tries to lookup the script via PATH if called as "sh script"
"
Last patch have synced form Manuel Nova III xxreadtoken() function,
corrected (C) form dash debian/copyright, removed my small mistake
with IFS_BROKEN (thanks by Herbert), and synced cmdedit.c from
current CVS (removed libc5 support, your email correction, my (C) year
corertion).
Hello all,
This patch adds more "Help" text to the config system. Almost
all applets now have a help entry. Also, I cleaned up the spacing of
the existing text so that things are consistent. This patch is against
this morning's CVS.

modified Kbuild system I put into uClibc. With this, there should be no more
need to modify Rules.mak since I've moved all the interesting options into the
config system. I think I've got everything updated, but you never know, I may
have made some mistakes, so watch closely.
