Most of this is taken from the Cygnus build tree, I think.
The test -d was added because:
a) it makes sense (to me, at least) not to try creating a
dir that exists
b) not checking this would cause the creation of actual
"/dev" and "/dev/env" directories, where paths of the
form "/dev/env/ENVVAR/foo" are used to get around the
DOS drivespec problems (and, in fact, 'prefix' on DJGPP
will usually be '/dev/env/DJDIR', as this will point to
the top of the DJGPP installation on _any_ DJGPP system
(which is a big deal given the decidedly unstandardised
PC directory structure).

* mkinstalldirs: Update with latest from Cygnus build
tree. Don't try making a dir when it already exists.
