I remember switching to shell scripts to do all of this when O'Brien updated the /binutils during the transition from 4.0 > 4.1. The consequence of mistyping a script name was immediately apparent where as, mistyping an option would be found at the end of a bad make session. The sequence of buildworld, build[install]kernel, installworld wasn't an option when the /binutils were updated. I kind of wonder if the same thing is going to happen when the /binutils are updated in ~2 months as was commented else where.
