Hmm, I don't know... /usr/src/Makefile isn't too big though :)

ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/sup/README.sup has more info on setting
up sup, and "make build" from the top level src directory will generally
do everything that's needed to build -current. You can put "UPDATE=1" in
/etc/mk.conf to make things go faster, although that occasionally leaves
stale files around that you need to remove by hand.
