the generated distfile used showpath to set search rules
so an rdist 'special' could always find a 'make'.
So, it tended to find the local make, which explodes on stock Suns
(process stack size problem).
So, changed search rules to force inclusion of /bin:/usr/bin:,
and hope that will guarantee finding a stock make.
