daily:

	Leave a warning to the sysop if (s)he didn't yet
	enable the /tmp cleanup code.
	Made `core' in the cleanup template look `*.core'.
	Replace `df -k' by `df -k -t local', since the stats
	for kernfs, procfs etc. are not of much interest, and
	the inclusion of nfs systems might  hang the machine (nor is it a
	`disk' statistic as the headline's telling).
weekly:
	Modified the locate.updatedb part to work even if there's no
	database yet; report errors other than `Permission denied' instead
	of silently ignoring all of them.
	Added functionality to rebuild the whatis database once a week.
