other hickup i've experienced were (not related to DESTDIR i believe): - gnu/usr.bin/gcc3 compilation fails with 1.6.2 /usr/bin/cc no matter what i tried (i end up overwriting by comp.tgz from releng.netbsd.org daily build) - /etc/postfix/master.cf not get updated (etc/postinstall did not catch it). itojun
