Description
While doing final preparation for putback of my REALMODE rip-out wad
(see 6316765), I tripped over an oddly-related bug.  Specifially, even
though each modified file had correct keywords, the keywords utility was
reporting that they were all wrong.

Further investigation revealed the problem: historically, a different
keyword format has been used for realmode files, and the use of this
alternate keyword was keyed off of having the string "realmode" in the
path to a given source file.  In my case, I'd named my workspace
"realmode", thus causing keywords to misidentify *every* file in the
workspace as being a realmode source file.

Of course, since there are no longer any realmode source files, this
bogus logic can just be removed -- and this seems an optimal time to
do it.
