Subject: BUG in a kernel mkfile

If this is a bug I don't understand how I've ever been able to make a kernel.
The distributed mkfile works fine for me.

In 2.0 distribution:

1. Can't compile kernel

FIX:    In file /sys/src/9/boot/mkfile
        replace lines

        ar uv $LIBRARY $names
        rm -f $names

        with

        eval ar uvc $LIBRARY $names
        eval rm -rf $names

(Sorry, i discovered it two weeks ago and forgot to post).
