Pull up following revision(s) (requested by kre in ticket #632):

        distrib/miniroot/install.sub: revision 1.52

The idiom

        set $whatever
        while [ $# - gt 10 ]; do shift 10; done
        eval echo \$$#

fails when $# turns out to be 10 (or any multiple), it would need
to be instead

        while [ $# -ge 10 ]; do shift 9; done

but there hasn't been a shell that cannot handle ${10} (etc) correctly
in a very long time, so let's just use that instead (properly quoted,
in case IFS happens to contain a digit for some bizarre reason).

We should also "set -f" / "set +f" (or better, restore the prev setting of -f)
around the "set $whatever" part, but if that was ever going to cause a problem
here, it would have already, so leave that for now.
