Adjust to new make_dir_parents API. + (install_file_in_file_parents): 2nd arg is now char *, not char + const *. Use mkancesdirs instead of rolling our own code. + (change_attributes): Don't worry about AFS, since that kludge + should not be needed any more. + * mkdir.c (struct mkdir_options): New struct. + (announce_mkdir, make_ancestor): New functions. + (main): Use them. Adjust to mode_adjust API change. Stick with + umask 0.
