I've been doing some reading and I think I have a grip on what I need
to do to go from 2.2.8-Release to -current on my scratch box. Please
check me and let me know if I've got it right:
1. Install 3.1-Stable sources
2. make upgrade
3. make world
4. make new kernel
5. reboot
6. Install
I'm doing a make world for the first time since the egcs cutover (yeah
yeah, keep the flames to yourselves) and I encountered a rough spot with
the build of egcs. My understanding was that to bootstrap over the change
I should first (before the make world) do:

First off, let's assume that I'm aware of all the traditional caveats
re -current being bleeding edge, read the lists, etc. and am willing to
deal with that. Now let's assume that I am trying to convince the powers
that be at work to use freebsd for an upcoming CGI server project. Here
