Less linked with libtermcap works on any types of mounts, I'm not sure
about a correct work of terminfo on text mounts.

Makefile.in in fileutils/lib expects presence of interlock and ylwrap in
the current directory instead of srcdir. Because of this build in separate
source and oject trees fails.
Configure in gzip doesn't set variable X in Makefile to ".exe".
Tar/lib/Makefile.in tries to put generated getdate.c into srcdir instead of
current dir. This fails if source tree is read-only.
Configure in tar doesn't substitute @AR@ in intl/Makefile.
Top-level install-sh doesn't handles .exe extensions properly.
