Uh... you can build snapshots of -release too. And, in many cases,
I'd have to use -current to do things I'd like to do in production.

No, no, I mean binaries entirely outside of the build environment.
Like, say, Postfix. Or sed. Or are you saying you do your whole
build at single user?

Well, I'll try that next time around then. It does sound faster.
(I'd insert a "try new kernel" step before the etcupdate. No need to
build one specifically if you've got it listed in EXTRA_KERNELS.
