The whole point of this change is to make things a little less weird
for newcomers; existing users either use one of the shells from ports,
or just carry their own shell rc file with their preferred PS1; either way
they probably won't even notice.

That's why I chose to follow the _actual_ status quo, both in FreeBSD
(the new prompt is the same as the csh(1) one, apart from the '$')
and Linux.  Thus the '\w'.
