Hacking around it is not easy. I'm just going to add e2fsprogs (only the
static libs, no shared) to the Temptools phase with `make libs; make
install-libs'

Some other things:

 - I've added `--enable-arch'. arch(1) is pretty useless but some old
   scripts might need it. `config.guess' doesn't need it but will use it if
   available. Apparently it's moving to coreutils anyway so we'll drop this
   switch when upgrading to next coreutils.

 - I've added `--enable-write' to maintain compat with the older release.
   Don't really know if anyone uses this kind of thing anymore.

 - I've added `--disable-wall' because wall is already included in sysvinit.

 - `elvtune' is no longer installed. It's useless according to DEPRECATED.

 - `rdev' and related crud is no longer installed. Useless.

 - `raw' is no longer installed. Useless.

 - `setfdprm' is gone completely.

 - some new stuff is installed, including `setarch' which is great for
   faking i386 on x86_64

 - i18n is probably broken in this release due to a screwup with LOCALEDIR,
   but I won't let that hold up installing it to the Refbuild.
