[PATCH] make buildcheck

From: Arjan van de Ven <arjanv@redhat.com>

the patch below adds a "make buildcheck" target which checks for the "uses
exit in init" bug using Keith Owen's script.  In the future other similar
sanity checks can be added to this target, but even just this one has been
quite useful already.  I use it in the kernel rpm build process for
example, and I'm sure the OSDL build testers can/want to use it too.

From: Keith Owens <kaos@ocs.com.au>

  They commented out the progress print statements, I prefer to have them
  present but no big deal.  The licence is missing.
