Ah, bad luck.

Yes, it got built, but I'm not counting on it working.  I've tarred up
the results from that build and have started a new one with today's cvs
updates.  I still need to build a kernel, but once that's done I'll see
if the "not-quite-successful" build works.

I've also hit some problems with the separate cross-compile attempt I've
been running.  I've not quite sorted it out yet, but there seems to be a
problem with the src/build.sh script.  When I run build.sh for the first
time in a clean src tree, it defaults to setting TOOLDIR as
src/tooldir.NetBSD-1.6X-i386 and DESTDIR as src/destdir.vax.
When I next run build.sh, it resets those locations to be
src/obj/tooldir.NetBSD-1.6X-i386 and src/obj/destdir.vax respectively.
This later causes the build to die because the tools don't actually live
where it thinks they should be.  It's kind of annoying.  From what I can
tell, manually creating a "src/obj" directory before starting the
initial build will fix the problems.  There's also the option of
explicitly setting those build environment variables.
