Because the admin directory is no longer included, the www directory isn't
either, and that's where the generated docs used to live. So now, make this directory include the generated docs, removing the old IPC7 and LISA-98 directories, and the .tex source files. These latter are moved to the admin repository.

+15.2 BSD issues
+</h2>
+
+<p>
+Vivek Khera writes that some BSDs do nightly security scans for setuid file
+changes. setgid directories also come up on the scan when they change. Also,
+the setgid bit is not necessary on BSD systems because group ownership is
+automatically inherited on files created in directories. On other <span class="Unix">Unix</span>es,
+this only happens when the directory has the setgid bit turned on.
+
+<p>
+To install without turning on the setgid bit on directories, simply pass in
+the <var>DIRSETGID</var> variable to <b class="program">make</b>, after you've run
+<b class="program">configure</b>:
+
+<p>
+<div class="verbatim"><pre>
+ % make DIRSETGID=: install
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>
+This disables the <b class="program">chmod g+s</b> command on installed directories.
