Yes, actually as per another response, I specified the full path
to tr in the Makefile (gross hack) and other problems occurred. It seems
the PATH was getting whacked in several places - things like tr, expr,
ex and mkdir (/bin and /usr/bin) are not being found. After a while, I
just gave up on specifying full paths. This system is a fresh 4.5R
install, with cvsup to 4.5S. I'm just outta ideas (and lack of sleep
doesn't help much) -- Tony Holmes

Very much a shot in the dark, but did you try the steps in the order
currently specified in the Handbook, including adjkerntz -i?  It just
happened to me when I tried to 'make world' on Saturday (going from
4.5-RELEASE to -STABLE as you're trying to do) that I errored out for
the first time ever.  Googling found suggestions that while things
installworld needed had in fact been built, installworld wasn't seeing
them because they'd taken place in the system's "future."  (I hope you
understand that better than I think I just explained it.:)  Anyhow, if
you haven't already, try following the current Handbook instructions to
the letter and see if that helps - worked for me.
