I do not have /usr/src installed on my system. I'm downloading the sets
directly from netbsd.org. Where would I find the 'obsolete.x' files in this
case? Where would they be on ftp.netbsd.org? If they aren't there, where
else should I look? This server doesn't have space to install the src tree,
so that is not an option.
