All done.  The two new filenames start with "DL-*":

------------------------------------------------------------
root:/data/build# ls -l dist/devil-linux-0.6Beta1-2003-08-29-i586
total 277644

I also added a check for an environment variable named "$DLDEVELOPER".
If it's set, the script appends a "-$DLDEVELOPER" to the end of the
filenames created for upload to the ftp site.  That way I can add this
in in my lfssystem  /root/.bash_profile  file:

  export DLDEVELOPER="bs"

And the filenames are created as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------
root:/data/build# make dist
compressing files
done
root:/data/build# ll dist/
total 90420
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root         4096 Aug 29 12:00 .
drwxr-xr-x   10 root     root         4096 Aug 29 11:59 ..
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        43981 Aug 29 12:00 CHANGES-devil-linux-0.6Beta1-2003-08-29-i586-bs
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root         4096 Aug 29 11:59 devil-linux-0.6Beta1-2003-08-29-i586
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root     92431788 Aug 29 12:00 devil-linux-0.6Beta1-2003-08-29-i586-bs.tar.bz2

Friedrich may find this useful too.   And for Heiko, leaving
$DLDEVELOPER unset creates the original filenames (and no extra dash).
