Probably because the steps -> test -d ${DESTDIR} && mv ${DESTDIR}
${DESTDIR}.old && rm -rf ${DESTDIR}.old &

Skip that part or better yet, don't rm -rf until you're fully finished
everything... Especially if you want to make a full release(8) with X
sets too then you'll have OpenBSD in ${DESTDIR}.old and Xenocara in
${DESTDIR}, if memory serves me correctly. It's kinda misleading and
the same goes with release(8).

Just my $0.02, hope this helps.
