1) I'd use 'build.sh -u' to do rebuilds, then it will only take a few
   minutes.
   I suspect you also want to add -U and build as non-root.

2) If you sort out what was used for 'tooldir' you can try rebuilding a
   single program by doing (eg):
   $ cd /usr/src/usr.bin/kdump
   $ $TOOLDIR/nbmake-i386

3) I did change kdump yesterday, it is possible that your source tree
   isn't entirely consistent.  However there ought too be some indication
   of a failure (eg a compiler error message) as well.

   It is best to cut/paste the few lines of the terminal output just
   before the error, gives people a chance of guessing what's wrong.
