Added an optional file for each package - Distfile-except - which
lets you add execpt or execpt_pat (well - techically anything to go
after the install command in a Distfile) stuff to a Distfile.
So for example tex's Distfile-except looks like this:

# distribution exceptions for the tex package (in addition to standard ones)
except_pat ( /software/tex/lib/fonts );

and then Distfile-local looks like this:

# Hi there
tex: ( /software/tex/lib/fonts/*.tfm ) -> ( ${tex_Targets_All} )
	install -R -s;


Changed a bunch of xhier support files and stuff like that.  Seems to
work ... doo dee doo ...
