commit d389a511601e608c8911893eac0261c444621097

    Rework PATH handling in all PCP shell scripts (via pcp.env)
    to address some issues disussed on the mailing list...

    > The explicit setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Solaris gives
    > me some security concerns (this is used by the PCP start
    > and cron scripts, so is often executed as root) - it's
    > better to do that stuff through the /etc/ld.so.conf.d/
    > equivalent in Solaris, not here.  The Solaris-specific
    > part then specifies /usr/local/bin, which is respecified
    > later - a bit odd.
    >
    > Also, theres no way to extend the PATH seen by PMDAs.  I
    > hit a situation yesterday where it would've been really
    > useful to have a configuration hook there.
    >
    > Finally, every time we run PCP scripts, we potentially
    > have to go off and stat an ever-increasing number of
    > directories, many being there for other platforms, which
    > just isn't a clean design.

    Remove reference to removed README file from makefile.

commit 251b0ce15fc7c350145192e5e8ed70416847f8e2

    Make the xconfirm script (the default PCP_XCONFIRM_PROG) run
    kmconfirm, if it finds it.  This is always a better choice if
    found, since its a modern interface and is also cross-platform.
    Remove odd README describing xconfirm as a generic tool SUBDIR.

    Remove funky TRIX shell snippet, as per yesterdays meeting re IRIX.
