signal 12's everywhere on Current with update this morning.

If this is true, perhaps the "build" man page should be updated.  
Here's what the man page has to say on the topic:

      The ``approved'' method of updating your system from the latest 
sources
      is:

            make buildworld
            make buildkernel KERNCONF=FOO
            make installkernel KERNCONF=FOO
            make installworld
            mergemaster

      After running these commands a system reboot is required...

This gives the impression that you're safe running all the builds 
without rebooting, especially as the word "approved" is used.
