It is non interactive, but that's not an issue:

	- Without arguments, it shows a usage.

	- When invoked with "check", it shows what needs to be
	  fixed.  This is the mode that the "afterinstall" target
	  in src/Makefile uses.

	- When invoked with "fix", it fixes most of the problems
	  identified by "check".
