I  build on 1.4.2/i386 release,  and try to build current...
What's about share/mk, do i need to copy /usr/src/share/mk to
/usr/share/mk? And what's next to do? I wanted to rebuild only ftpd with
patches, but when i try cd /usr/src/libexec/ftpd; make i had some errors,
it was 1.4.2-release sources on 1.4.2-release, so now i decided to rebuild
all system to current.
