In the last 7 days something changed for the worse in the last stages
of building.  It looks like METALOG now contains lines like:

    ./var/obj/netbsd/destdir.i386/usr/lib/libc.so type=link mode=0755 link=../../lib/libc.so.12.111

There is no ./var/obj/ but there is a /var/obj/ on my system.  I
symlink /usr/obj to /var/obj/netbsd (/usr gets backed up and I like to
keep volatiles under /var/obj).  Up to a week ago that worked
flawlessly.

Just for the record.  Here is the first and last lines of the build.

    ./build.sh -U tools kernel=WSRCC_ATHLON distribution
