I tested distribution and it appears not to need it.
P.S. I didn't think this feature even existed yet, but apparently it

That looks better. Thanks, I hope this change will be committed.
I don't really know if I need "make distribution ..." in my case.
Attempt to boot and I'll find out.
I also intend to build for i386 onto a separate partition, booting from 16 GB USB 2.0 stick with FreeBSD 9.1-stable.
Then I intend to "make distribution ..." after the other steps.
