oh, dang ... it just occurred to me that it's still a good idea to add
dirs like lost+found to the RCS_FIND_IGNORE and RCS_TAR_IGNORE
variables since someone might, weirdly, decide to mount a subdirectory
of the kernel source tree on a separate partition. unlikely, yes, but
it can happen.
it may be that we want a more general variable for those blacklists as
well -- ALL_FIND_IGNORE, ALL_TAR_IGNORE, that sort of thing.
thoughts?
