I don't think this is true anymore.  I don't see how having secure
binaries could prevent you from building non-secure binaries.  It just
doesn't make any sense.

David complained to me last week about make release not working unless
the libraries are in the chroot tree.  Look at release.2:

release.2:
        @cd ${.CURDIR} ; $(MAKE) ckRELEASEDIR
        cd ${.CURDIR}/../etc && make distrib-dirs DESTDIR=${RD}/trees/bin
        cd ${.CURDIR}/.. ; make distribute DISTDIR=${RD}/trees
        cd ${.CURDIR}/../eBones && ( \
                make bootstrap ;\

The make bootstrap will fail (or used too until I did the LDADD fixes to
eBones) since the libraries aren't *installed* in the bootstrap target
until after all of eBones is built.  I think it was kprop that fell over
first.

>I agree though that this make system is ropey as hell...

Yup.
