Description mwm 2001-12-26 06:10:01 UTC
The handbook description of building a new kernel fails to point out
that you can't safely do a "make buildkernel" after updating your
system sources until *after* you've done a "make buildworld".

Fix: The attached patch corrects this oversight.
How-To-Repeat: 
Read the handbook section on building a kernel, and note that the
discussion of "make buildkernel" doesn't mention this requirement at
all.
