Indeed.  I may be in over my head here.. but we'll see once I get this thing
booting.

The next question as I see it is: how can I do an incremental cross build?  I'm at
that point where I just wanted to toy with loader changes.. but all I could come
up with was a buildworld with -DNOCLEAN.  There's gotta be something easier,
right?
