>Description:
After installing a new machine from 4.2-RELEASE cd I tryed to upgrade
system without recompiling world but using a previously tree on another
machine.  I mounted /usr/(src|obj|ports), cd /usr/src and make reinstall
but it fails with "don't know how to make reinstall"

NB: I tryed with make reinstall even if Makefile identify it as private
target because remarks before reinstall: gently explain
# If you have a build server, you can NFS mount the source and obj
# directories and do a 'make reinstall' on the *client* to install
# new binaries from the most recent server build.

I also tryed with "make install" and "installworld" but they also fails:
===> lib/libcom_err
cd /usr/src/lib/libcom_err &&  install -C -o root -g wheel -m 444  /usr/src/lib/libcom_err/../../contrib/com_err/com_err.h /usr/include
cd /usr/src/lib/libcom_err &&  install -C -o root -g wheel -m 444  /usr/src/lib/libcom_err/../../contrib/com_err/com_right.h /usr/include
install -c -o root -g wheel -m 444   libcom_err.a /usr/lib
install -c -o root -g wheel -m 444   libcom_err_p.a /usr/lib
install: libcom_err_p.a: No such file or directory
*** Error code 71

Stop in /usr/src/lib/libcom_err.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src/lib.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a fresh machine from 4.2-RELEASE CD (2000.11.22)
NFS mount /usr/(src|obj) from a 4.2-STABLE
# cd /usr/src && make reinstall
make: don't know how to make reinstall. Stop

-OR-

# cd /urs/src && make install
[...]
install: libcom_err_p.a: No such file or directory
Stop.

-OR-

# cd /usr/src && make installworld
[...]
install: libcom_err_p.a: No such file or directory
Stop.
