I was trying to let Doug know that using the relative path can/will `break' the build and spew the infamous ``___error'' messages. I thought as keeper of the FAQ this might be of interest to Doug. AFAIK, use of the relative path also breaks updates of -current. I do not have any problems with the build or install. I have not experienced any problems with the following, except after a few untimely cvsup's. ;-) make -m /usr/src/share/mk buildworld make -m /usr/src/share/mk installworld -- Regards, Norman C.
