I'm hoping that DES will be forthcoming if such discrepancies exist
so that we can reconcile them.  Right now, from what I understand,
he says that this is close enough to a tinderbox run to be useful.

The only thing I didn't like was that it picks up all kernels sitting
in my source tree.  I should probably fix the 'tinderbox' target
not to pick up my own kernels.

Let me know what you think about that.
