Pull up revision 1.4 (requested by thorpej in ticket #797):
  Include various more functions in libnbcompat, mostly
  becuase our tools use features not universally present in
  other versions. This applies to glob(3), vis(3), and the
  MD2, MD4, RMD160 and SHA1 implementations.
  Also add checks for random(3) and termios.h for the Heimdal
  host tools.
  Update README to indicate the current state of building the
  host tools on Solaris 8 (for SPARC).

 Special notes for cross-hosting a NetBSD build on certain platforms.
