This is another security fix. If you use chown() or chmod() on a
symbolic link, it affects the referenced file, not the symbolic link
itself.

The local service now redirects stdout and stderr for the scripts it
runs to /dev/null unless it is run in verbose mode.

Do not change permissions on the target if it is a file and has multiple
hard links. This is necessary because a hard link can be an attack
vector to gain privilege escalation.

sysfs now mounts all related sysfs file systems and returns success,
like netmount and localmount.
Also, we now check to make sure the cgroups are not mounted before we
mount them.

runscript used to dlopen() runscript_selinux.so. This adds equivalent
functionality directly in to runscript instead. It authenticates with
either PAM or shadow and optionally has a dep on audit.

Fixes#25
Note from William Hubbs:
The original patch overwrote CFLAGS. I modified this patch to add the
ncurses cflags to CPPFLAGS instead of overwriting CFLAGS.
Check for __FreeBSD_kernel instead of __GLIBC__ in source files.
note from William Hubbs:
I was told this is a better check for GNU/kFreeBSD than checking the
C library the source is being compiled against.
GNU/kFreeBSD than checking which library we are using.
This adds support for a chroot variable which will be passed to the
start-stop-daemon --chroot switch to runscript.sh when starting a
daemon. This also needs to be saved so it can be used in locating the
pid file when stopping the daemon.

Fix gentoo bug #427996 correctly.
We should attempt to mount the file systems, but not try to start the
daemons. The previous fix removed mounting the file systems as well as
starting the daemons.

Note from William Hubbs:
I spoke with Roy about this, and he pointed out that user-defined
functions may need the limits applied, so it is better to go with a
method that uses exceptions to determine which functions apply the
limits.
