I have compiled mkfile and config.h to produce a seemingly
working copy of GNU Make 3.80 under APE.  One small adjustment to
main.c allows #including <fcntl.h> which is necessary for successful
compilation.

As there is a make-3.79 directory in /sys/src/ape/cmd that is
currently underpopulated, I would suggest using the 3.80 version to
fill the gap.  In order not to lose the V10 make currently used by
APE, I would suggest targetting (as I did) /$objtype/bin/ape/gmake and
/sys/src/ape/cmd/gmake for 3.80.

Also, I have deployed the /sys/src/ape/lib/ap/plan9/wait.c that
correctly handles PIDs off a linked list (as correctly as I have been
able to test) and gmake seems to exercise it a little, giving me a
little more confidence that the new wait.c is no worse than the
version it replaces.

Anyone interested, please contact me.
