'build.sh distribution' doesn't do any .tgz files. Use 'build.sh
distribution sets' or 'build.sh release' to build sets.

To build X11 sets with build.sh you need to specify MKX11=YES for build.sh
in /etc/mk.conf or with 'build.sh -V'.

Right now there is two options to build X11 sets:

 1) With build.sh
 2) make release from xsrc directory

You also need to specify path to xsrc tree with X11SRCDIR if it's not the
default /usr/xsrc.
