I just downloaded the 1.5.3 source and did a (successful) 'make build'.
I now want to update /etc.  I see that /usr/src/usr.bin/etcupdate 
exists, but it wasn't compiled and installed.  Also, the man page (also 
not installed) says "The etcupdate command appeared in NetBSD 1.6" -- 
and I'm definitely not running 1.6.  Is it safe to use?  Should I try 
the pkgsrc version instead?  (And I wish that etcupdate had a -n flag, 
where it wouldn't actually do anything, but would tell you what needs 
to be done.  The man page indicates that I'll be prompted for each 
change, but I much prefer batch-oriented scripts.)
