For those who don't mind using static libraries and the old bind, I have
a snapshot (180 meg with source, 58 meg without) built from Dec 24 -current.
Now I just need an FTP site (run by someone who is still on-line during the
holidays) to put it on.

As before, I ran a complete cycle three times, and this time I actually
compared the last two output trees with diff -r. Not unexpectedly the
files that always have date stamps (kernel, libraries) were different,
but there were also a few binaries in the list that I am not too familiar
with. Does anyone know of a real utility for comparing executables?

Here's the complete list of differences.
