Initial import of afio-2.4.7 into the NetBSD Packages Collection. The nudge came from a netbsd-help posting by Thomas Hafner and a URL posted by Jeremy Reed. Afio makes cpio-format archives. It deals somewhat gracefully with input data corruption. Supports multi-volume archives during interactive operation. Afio can make compressed archives that are much safer than compressed tar or cpio archives. Afio is best used as an `archive engine' in a backup script.

Fix broken Solaris build by not using sys_errlist. Clean up other problems revealed by gcc -Wall: - pass (char *)NULL, not 0, as the last arg of execlp, to avoid crashes on LP64 platforms; - use signal.h, not sys/signal.h; - use utime(3) correctly; - use W* macros and sys/wait.h instead of hardcoding bit patterns. Note in the DESCR that the package has been patched, as the license might be construed to require this. PKGREVISION -> 2.
