The third/lprng/lprng install does:

rm -f /.srvd/usr/athena/bin/lp;     ln -s lpr  /.srvd/usr/athena/bin/lp;

We overwrite this symlink with our lp script in packs/glue.

We should either decide we want to use lprng's lp emulation and nuke
the packs/glue script, or we should hack lprng not to install lp.
Otherwise I could accidentally nuke the glue script by rebuilding
third/lprng/lprng.
