     DESCRIPTION
          Mkdir creates specified directories in mode 777.  Standard
          entries, `.', for the directory itself, and `..'  for its
          parent, are made automatically.

     DIAGNOSTICS
          Mkdir returns exit code 0 if all directories were success-
          fully made.  Otherwise it prints a diagnostic and returns
          nonzero.
