Expand regular expressions used in sed invocations in SPECIAL lines to

find and delete more comments from scripts put on floppy images.

Now, leading whitespace and no trailing characters are both detected
and either cause the comment line to be deleted.

Fix list2sh.awk so that the tabs in the sed statements are not lost
during script creation. Previously the remainder of the SPECIAL line,
i.e. the shell statement to write, was recreated from the fields, but
awk treated the <blank><tab> in the sed expression as a field
separator and discarded the blank and tab. The blank was then added
back in the recreation process, but the tab was lost.

These changes cause the scripts to shrink by a total of 6596
characters.

This handles the i386 cases, other architectures can probably be fixed
the same way.
