These were done on behalf of Julian Stacey, who wanted some sort of
tighter integration in his "really build the world" makes.  Myself,
I think it's cruft and it should go.  If you want to build the world,
a small shell script does fine:

% cat > beat_my_system
#!/bin/sh
date
cd /usr/src
echo "** Making the world in less than 7 days"
make world
echo "** Done with the world, resting.."
sleep 1
echo "Ok, that's enough.  Moving on to ports."
cd /usr/ports
make -k clean all install
echo "My god!  We're still here!"
exit 0
^D
% chmod +x beat_my_system
% ./beat_my_system >& /var/log/beating.log &
