Well, the intent is to do away with UPDATING entirely when everything is
switched to the new toolchain.  The top-level location of this document is
rather important, as it is *the* documentation for the entrypoint into
building NetBSD from source.

I'm not entirely sure how confusing it would be to move BUILDING.* and
UPDATING into a path such as src/doc, but I know that moving them to
src/share/doc is out of the question.  This document has to be somewhere in
close reach of the top level Makefile and build.sh.
