Yes, you are of course right about that, I think I made this
mistake once before a long time ago and caused a great mess.  BUT,
even though I've done this stupid thing, why does "make
installworld" apparently run to completion (w/o a single peep or
complaint), but not actually DO anything?  The binaries associated
with the "make kernel" are all newer than the stuff from "make
world", so this should look like I'm starting out on a new kernel
build, no?

Confusedly,
