The contents of /var in the above distribution are bogus.
I thoughtlessly made this from my `live' NetBSD machine, on which I'd
usurped the /var/ partition for making miniroots. I moved the
contents of /var to a directory in /usr, and symlink'ed var to that.
Whene creating base.tar.gz, the symlinks got written out to the
tarfile.
The contents is still mostly *reasonable*, but if anyone gets this,
they'll have to undo the ugly hack I did with /var. If it'd be
useful, I'll try and find time to clean this up and make another
``release'' later in the week. I need to hear how useful it'd be,
first. :)
