rnotroff ahems

When I posted the rnotroff runoff-to-troff converter, I neglected
two minor points.

	1) The makefile has an entry for an obsolete program
		called runoff as the first entry, which fails.
		You have to type
			make rnotroff

		Better yet, delete the entry for `runoff'
		from the makefile, then just type `make'.

	2) There are _still_ some sites that don't have getopt(3).
	   It is in System III and V, and will be in 4.3, but it's not
	   in 4.2. Several public-domain versions have been posted
	   to net.sources and other groups. If you can't find this
	   function (the one true way to scan command arguments in C)
	   in your news spool or archive and it's not in your system,
	   then let me know and I'll try to get you a copy.
	   (The other two names that show up as undefined, optind
	   and optarg, are defined in getopt(3).)
