Could someone explain the make buildworld process? I've been looking
around through the lists and google, also my Complete FreeBSD book and
am not finding some specific answers. For example

Is the make buildworld process one that rebuilds all exiting programs on
your machine? I understand it builds everything from source.

Since I'm doing just that now after having updated with cvsup, I
understand all I have to do is drop down into single user mode, run make
installworld and presto, everything is new and working! :-)
