(In reply to hbowden from comment #0)

setenv is used for csh, the default root shell

So those instructions work if you type them into a default root shell, but when
you turned it into a script and changed the shell from csh to sh, without
updating the syntax, you never set D, so you ran 'make installworld' and 'make
distribution' with a blank DESTDIR, which defaulted to /, overwriting your
install.
