Add info about burncd, c++ changes, the xinstall kludge as well as

correct the buidlworld typo every keeps teasing me about.

I didn't ask Jordan if this was OK, but figured it fell under the

+	{set,get}flags have been added to the tree for rather dubious
+	reasons.  An unintended side effect of this is that you must
+	rebuild install before the rest of the world.

+	friend.
