Hi all,

Up to this point I have always updated (within a branch), by dropping to =
single user mode for everything.

After running cvsup to obtain the new source, is it generally considered =
OK to run the maike buildworld in multiuser mode, or, are the dangers to =
doing this?

Of course, after that step, one would drop to single user mode to =
buildkernel, installkernel, and installworld.
