I haven't tried to decipher the Makefile that far into it and don't have any
idea.

If you aren't upgrading from a 4.x version, pay close attention to
/usr/src/UPDATING. The important stuff is located quite a ways in now. There
are situations where people have to set NOPERL to get around problems with
perl on the first build.

You might "cd /usr/obj" and "rm -rf *" to get a clean obj. You might have
problems with the chflags and have to noschg /usr/obj before you can remove
it all. The rm will remove all it can first, which makes the chflags faster.
The default /root shell has a history and you aren't retyping much. 

FWIW, I had an old SuperMicro mobo that wouldn't take additional memory. I
could add 64MB in the 1st two slots and that was it. I eventually replaced
it with a P2B-B. That took me from a P-133 to a Celeron 433a.
