whats seemed to have a feature where it would use a file named "acron" in
the current directory _instead_ of the default acron files, if it existed.
A user was having problems using whats while in /mit/zlog, since there exists
a zephyr log for the instance acron.

I think it's bad to have a dependency on the current directory, so I
commented out the appropriate lines to disable this. If one of you
actually used this feature to accomplish something, let me know, and
we can do a more complicated fix, like searching both the current directory
acron file, and the default acron files.

#    if [ -f acron ]

#        acron=acron
#    else
        acron=`ls -d /mit/sipb/share/acron/acron* | egrep -v '~$'`
#    fi
