Both mptutil and mfiutil originated at Yahoo, where we have other
utilities with a "util" suffix. Ultimately, I'm trying to reduce diffs
between freebsd and ybsd, and it's not going to be productive for me to
arbitrarily rename these programs, no matter what the aesthetic
rationale might be. And, as Stefan aptly points out, there is no
overwhelming aesthetic rationale anyways.
