What are /usr/spool/notes/file and /usr/spool/notes/make and
/usr/spool/notes/gripe? The Makefile does a 'mknf nfgripes'.
I don't quite understand what file, make, and gripe are for.

The distributed makefile does a

	-mknf nfgripes			# make gripe file

which unfortunately also creates the notesfiles #, make, gripe, and file
(since make does not recognize the # as the beginning of a comment).  It
is safe to remove them (they do nothing).
