Don't be too discouraged just yet.  People don't necessarily
track -current as frequently as they do -stable, or at least
I don't.  I have windows of time that I can work on freebsd,
and if some change has broken current during that window
then I have to skip it for another week.  Between my own
schedule and assorted temporary breakages in -current, I
had gone more than a month without getting a successful
buildworld.  (I managed to get one last night)
