I had to migrate a lot of data recently, and hadn't backed up some of
dotfiles, and .shrc and .profile were among them.

What was done:
1. Unnecessary entries in SUBDIR's in Makefiles across the source tree 
were
removed. For example, I don't need sqlite, httpd, csh/ksh and so on, on 
the
workstation. This applies to all programs that do not have a 
MK${PROGRAM}=no
option in mk.conf.

2. I ran build.sh without sets/release/iso-image etc. arguments, i.e. a 
plain
`make install` to a DESTDIR.

3. Then, the results in the DESTDIR were tar'ed to my liking, but pretty
similar to the upstream. You can spend some time fixing 
flists/mtrees/whatever,
so you can run build.sh with the arguments, but I'm too lazy to do that.

4. A -CURRENT installation media was used to partition the disk, unpack 
the
sets, set a password, etc.
