I have a script that does things in a specific order.  To be safe,
when following current, I do this (this is a shortened version,
actually):

    Install all the updated headers

	cd /usr/src
	make includes

    Remake make, in case any of the build system makefiles have
    changed, and added new functionality

	cd /usr/src/usr.bin/make
	make clean obj depend all install

    Install the new system make files

	cd /usr/src/share/mk
	make install

    Then, make the rest of the system in whatever order you desire.
    You can do a "make world", if you like.  I do libraries next, then
    proceed on to the rest of the system.
