Just a quick question about building current.

After doing make obj, and make -k build, the system is apparently
(at least mostly) installed and up to date.

If I then go into /usr/src and do make -k, it appears that crt0
is rebuilt which then forces relinking of all programs. Is 
there something funny with the makefiles that causes this?

Further, is there a better way of doing a daily rebuild of
-current than the make obj;make build that i've been doing?
It seems to me that 18 hours per day on a multia is a bit 
excessive to stay up to date, with just a few changes having
occured. (I have make -k above just to get the entire thing
done, as at least on the second pass make, bin/ps kills the build
without it at this time. I'm not sure if there are other things
that are in flux right now.
