i finally got around to this.  motivated by the fightful
disorganization in my contrib area, i found that
contrib(1) works like a dream.  thanks, guys.

i removed most of the stuff from /n/sources/contrib/quanstro/src
and subpixel except for some untidy bits that didn't
seem worth packaging.  there were a couple of packages
that were greatly improved by the swtch, eg

abaco
	now includes vera fonts, password fonts and
	necessary change to /sys/include/html.h
fs
	the diskless fs code is now packaged up
	with the il code and the necessary change
	to ndb/cs.
rchistory
	has the rc differences and rchistory.
nupas
	now includes man pages.
	and hopefully a fix to the reported gmail bug.

feedback welcome!
