Upgrading, 11.4 -> 12.1

[George Mitchell]

1. Is there a way to shut "make delete-old" up?  For most minor
upgrades, of course, it never says anything.  But for an upgrade such
as this, it forces me to type "y<Enter>" upwards of a hundred times.
All the things it's deleting look plausible to me and I've never had
occasion to tell it NOT to delete a file.  Is there a way to tell it
to just assume "y"?

2. I run X with no explicit configuration file, and this has gone
very well so far, but not today.  X starts up the display with no
problem, but it can't find any input devices.  The relevant part of
the server log says:

Does this mean I need to provide a configuration file?  Where are the
input drivers it couldn't find?  Since I have so far tried the upgrade
on only one machine, the X server was compiled under 11.3:
