I want to start building releases on a home box since it's not doing much 
else when I'm at work. But I have a rather low bandwidth, so I was 
wondering about the CVS checkout of /usr/src that the make release does. 
With my bandwidth the source may very well be out of synch with what the 
binaries were built with (and it takes way too long). Or am I missing 
something.

Also is there anything against doing a 'make clean' in /usr/src (or 
whereever it's based) and then slurping that tree into the release tree? 
(in a private patch of course, not suggesting this to be put into -CURRENT 
itself or anything.

I know it might not be the preffered way of doing a real release, but for 
test builds, would it be acceptable to patch the Makefile to do just that?
