Hi,

I'm trying to build current on arm32 (CATS). I checked out my local CVS copy
of /usr/src into /usr/src/netbsd, but it turns out that if one tries to run
"make install " for gnu/lib/bfd it complains about not finding
/usr/src/lib/checkver. relocating my source tree to be based on /usr/src
instead of /usr/src/netbsd fixes the problem. Is this an indication of a
problem, or should I just take it as rote that I should be building from
/usr/src?
