	Okay, with my latest attempt, I am completely avoiding all 
attempts to use CVS -- I'm just extracting the latest tarballs and 
trying build.sh.  This is working much better.  However, I have run 
into a new problem.  I have done searches on the web and in USENET 
newsgroups (thanks to Google), and I have not found any discussion of 
this problem or the solution:

/u/src/tools/obj/tools.NetBSD-1.5.2-sparc/bin/nbmtree -def 
mtree/NetBSD.dist -p /usr/tmp/destdir/ -U
nbmtree: unknown user `named'
nbmtree: failed at line 766 of the specification
*** Error code 1

Stop.
nbmake: stopped in /u/src/etc
*** Error code 1

Stop.
nbmake: stopped in /u/src
*** Error code 1

nbmake: stopped in /u/src


	If this is a change that was instituted between 1.5.2-REL and 
1.5-CURRENT, I'd appreciate any pointers that people can provide 
regarding the solution.  Meanwhile, I'm going to vgrep what BIND and 
NetBSD documentation that I can find.
