No.

I believe that is for PXE booting a Metrix node so you can 'dd' a CUWiN
image to it.  It is not a CUWiN product.  I believe it comes from the
Lawrence Freenet.

Yes, they are.

You will have to make do.  The BSD make macros are documented in
/usr/share/mk/bsd.README, which is installed on all NetBSD machines.

Look at the linker lines in libhsls/Makefile and hsls/Makefile.

There is a README file for hslsd.  It would be easy enough to convert
it to a manual page using the mdoc macro set, which has a manual page
on NetBSD, mdoc(7).

Folks from Telcordia read this list.
