Couple of build system points

Hey All,

A couple of issues I've found regarding the build system.

1) Make extraclean:
When doing make extraclean, we skip neon. Firstly, we also need to skip
db/dist. Secondly, we should 'make distclean' instead.

I plan on fixing this by the patch at the end of this mail.

2) When the db-in-tree is built, we need to do a couple of things:
        a) Make sure it is a valid version
        b) Make sure it finishes building before we try to link against it(think
        make -j here).

Not sure of the best approach here.

3) When we have no db or apache, we need to make sure that the install
        target doesn't depend on the fs/module components, or else we try
        to build it at install time.

My plan for this was to change the way build.conf works, by combining the
group and install options. Thus we would have install values of
lib, fs-lib, bin, fs-bin, sbin, fs-sbin, test, fs-test. Then change
gen-make.py and configure.in to make rules for each of the existing install
values, and substitute the ones that are needed back into the makefile. What
do you all think about this approach and the patch below?
