[PATCH] independence from gmake

A first step in the make-agnostization and cleanup of the build system can
be retrieved from

	http://www.cs.kun.nl/~adridg/kde/bsd-make.html

there's a tarfile there that replaces admin/Makefile.common and adds
admin/cvs.sh. The shellscript now does all the work. It contains a todo
list of things that could stand for improvement.

With this applied, both BSD and gnu make can handle the top-level
Makefile.cvs and Makefile.common targets. The important part of that
change was changing target names from (f.ex.) "subdirs" to "./subdirs"
when make is called. Making am_edit produce makefiles for both systems is
the next step - done on my home machine, not here, and not tested on all
the KDE modules yet.

Could someone with sufficient karma give this a test-drive and then
commit? Or bitch, as the case may be.
