Adding to te sequel:

# made shure that /etc/make.conf were insync.....
# cd /usr/src
# make installworld
............... after some work
--------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Installing everything..
--------------------------------------------------------------
cd /usr/src51/src; /usr/obj/usr/src51/src/make.i386/make -f Makefile.inc1
install
===> share/info
install -o root -g wheel -m 444  dir-tmpl /usr/share/info/dir
*** Signal 12

But looking and tring some more I just kept running into trouble...
Until I looked into the header of Makefile and found the solution:

/usr/obj/usr/src51/src/make.i386/make -f Makefile.inc1 reinstall

So maybe it is a suggestion to add that as a target to /usr/src/Makefile
as well.
And the big question is: does this do the same as installworld???

Note that I normally use 'make installworld', also on NFS mounted installs

Note that I needed to make 'beyond43.ascii.gz' manually, since that was
not to be found anywhere in /usr/{src,obj}

For all others it now seems I'm running 5.1-RELEASE
