The lists are really bad. Each individual Makefile in each program 
directory is responsible for deciding what binaries go into what disk 
image type. Adding a disk image type requires either making it a clone 
of one of the three "standard" types (thus full3 and full5 are both 
"full" types) or adding a new image type to every single Makefile in 
every program directory. This definitely needs to change.
