commit 2968bd60984742c11f98ebf9ffc728793fcbf242

Fix Savannah bug #34728 (`make devel' on Mac OS X).

* builds/toplevel.mk: Check `/dev/null' to identify the Unix-
like systems without `init' nor `hurd' (e.g. Mac OS X >= 10.4).
* builds/unix/detect.mk: Ditto.

This is because Mac OS X had removed /sbin/init since 10.4.
Considering other candidate to identify Unix like systems,
I decided to check /dev/null existing since Unix Version 7.
According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki//dev/null,
other systems (MS-DOS, CP/M, Windows PowerShell, Amiga, OpenVMS)
use different pathnames.

`make devel' on Mac OS X finishes as:
$ make devel
make: Nothing to be done for `devel'.

On Mac OS X < 10.4, it works well.
Same GNU make binary (linked statically)
show different result, so there might be
kernel related difference.
