I do not know of a need to have the default shell be a build-time
configurable setting. All *nix systems I am aware of have /bin/sh as a
default posix compatible shell.
If some systems running OpenRC do not make that assumption about
/bin/sh, I will consider bringing this back, so feel free to open an
issue.
In the past, OpenRC was a hybrid of a centralized and file-scope
license/copyright structure.
I followed the instructions from the Software Freedom Law Center [1] to
convert to a Centralized structure where possible, for easier future
maintenance.

BINDIR and SBINDIR can be set independently of PREFIX and may not be set
to PREFIX/bin as scripts currently assume.
Note from William Hubbs:
This adds @BINDIR@ and @SBINDIR@ macros to the sed commands run to
convert *.in files to the executable form.

This allows the default value of rc_sys to be set when openrc is
compiled. This will allow openrc to be installed, e.g. on vserver guests
and will allow them to be rebooted without the need to edit rc.conf.
This patch is a combined effort between myself and Robin Johnson.

This reworks the shell calls in the makefiles to use immediate
evaluation and should improve parallel building.

OpenRC version is now stored as plaintext in /libexec/rc/version
Plugins (cursplash, splashutils) will have to be re-compiled to pickup
the new directories. State data needs to be moved from /lib/rc/init.d
to /libexec/rc/init.d as well.
