[ksh93-integration-discuss] libcmd/*/include/ast/cmd.h

[Glenn Fowler]

the default ast build places all installed and generated files in the
$PACKAGEROOT/arch/$HOSTTYPE subtree

generated headers will contain the grep pattern
	' : : generated from '
these may (and probably will) differ between $HOSTTYPEs

installed headers are passed through the ast proto command
(for KnR and C++ compatibility) and contain the grep pattern
	' : : generated by '

so headers installed from source will be the same across $HOSTTYPEs
and will not contain ' : : generated from '
