I would think that fscadm should go into /usr/sbin since you have to
be root to run it. Correspondingly, the manpage should be in section
8. The Makefile infrastructure looks to hardcode paths which I assume
would be fixed up by importing it into the tree. I'll see if I can
take a closer look at it tonight or tomorrow.
