Hi Greg,

1.6+ has a new toolchain (well, new relative to 1.5.X).
At the top of the source tree is a script called build.sh.

If you type:
	./build.sh -usage

A quick list of how to do a variety of things is printed
out, including building, crossbuilding and so forth.

Now, if you wish to rebuild for 1.6, you need to have the
1.6 sources, not -current. If you wish to bump up to
-current, you can grab a snapshot from:

	ftp://releng.netbsd.org/

Install the snapshot, then read the UPDATING file for anything
you may need to update before attempting a build.

	j
