Normally when rebuilding the world, it shouldn't be strictly necessary to always make bootstrap, include-tools, lib-tools, build-tools. 1. Wouldn't it be alright to 'make -DNOCLEAN -DNOOBJDIR -DNOTOOLS buildworld' in order to speed up the build at such times? 2. Is it necessary to build all these tools (including "bootstrap") the first time through buildworld in order to correctly complete the build that time? Upgrading from 2.x to 3.x or other similar quantum leaps do not concern me here, but it seems odd that rebuilding -current:today when -current:yesterday is present in the build tree (and perhaps also installed) should typically not require these additional steps. -- Adam David <adam@veda.is>
