The only cvmach is in plat/osx/cvmach; I named it because it converts
ack.out to Mach-O, the executable format of Mac OS X. Perhaps it
should be cvmacho, but I forgot the 'o'. It gets installed at
lib/ack/cvmach. Other cv tools in lib/ack would need different names,
but cvmach is the only cv tool in lib/ack for now.

There is a cv in lib/ack/pdpv7/cv that converts ack.out to Unix v7
a.out. If we follow that pattern, cvmach would get installed twice in
lib/ack/osx386/cv and lib/ack/osxppc/cv.
