>Description:
sup is now shipped with NetBSD. If invoked with the -s option, to use a system default supfile, it looks for such
a file in /usr/lib/supfiles. This is clearly not right.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ sup -s
SUP: Can't open supfile /usr/lib/supfiles/coll.list
>Fix:
if there is some consensus on where the system supfile should go (or if this option should go away), I will
be glad to submit patches to everything under /usr/src/usr.sbin/sup
