Yup, that's what I get for reading one day then starting the work the
next. Restoring the headers doesn't change the outcome unfortunately.
I got another note saying I can't go from 4.11 to 6.0 directly,
instead I have to move to 5.4 first...
Can I bypass that if I build 6.0 on a system already running 6.0,
bring over /usr/src and /usr/obj, and proceed from there?
