Yes, in fact, you can now successfully mounting /usr/src and /usr/obj
read-only. There is a caveat, though. If you happen to have /usr/src
as a symlink somewhere else (say, /var/tmp/src), the machines you
are running the install on need to have /usr/obj/var/tmp/src/* available
(use symlinks there too), otherwise you'll see the strange errors like
missing osreldate.h.
