I agree, even though I imported it myself.  The reason I imported it into 
/usr/bin (like 4.4) is because I want to get the userland merge completed 
before moving things about & other tweaks.

I'd also like to move chown/chgrp back to the root filsystem.  On several
occasions I've had systems with munged up /dev entries (to the point /usr 
was not mountable), and I was unable to run "MAKEDEV all" because chown
was missing.
