	It does have a 'Destination' target, which may be similar to an 
install target.  I don't know as I've never built or installed current. 
  You set your 'Destination' to

/usr/mybuild

	It defaults to /.  This means a build overwrites your existing system 
binaries.  This is fine if you like to live on the edge. ;^)

	Here is what I used,

./build.sh -d -O /usr/src/obj -D /usr/src/dest -R /usr/src/release

The above line will use
	- /usr/src/obj as the object directory
	- /usr/src/dest as the location for new binaries
	- /usr/src/release as the location for *.tgz of the binaries

	You can install the *.tgz sets that should now be in

/usr/src/release

	I'm currently having trouble getting sysinst to find my release sets 
when I try and use sysinst to upgrade.  I will be reposting this 
message to the list.
	Good luck.
