+ * David Douthitt -- fixed a build error in df.c when

+ * Vladimir N. Oleynik -- cleanups to route, cmdedit, mkdir,
+ mkfs_minix, mkswap, chmod_chown_chgrp and utility.c

- -Erik Andersen, <not released yet>
+ * Erik Andersen -- ls now honors BB_FEATURE_AUTOWIDTH so it can find
+ the width and height of the console.
+ * Erik Andersen -- insmod now ignores -L and accepts the -o option.
+ * Erik Andersen -- updates so you can now select from the Makefile
+ whether or not to use the system's passwd and group functions.
+ Since most systems use GNU libc, this can save you from having to
+ install the /etc/nsswitch.conf configuration file and the required
+ libnss_* libraries. Adds 1.5k. You can now, also, disable this,
+ causing busybox to use the system's pwd.h and grp.h functions.
