Hi,

	Thanks for the reply!

	I went back to the EOL branch, got the devel/make, installed it.

	Went back to the current state, and still had the issue. Tried
to run it as "MAKE=/usr/local/bin/make /usr/local/bin/make index" and
still no go. I was trying to see if I didn't have to make it the base
permanently.

	So I "mv /usr/bin/make /usr/bin/make.old;ln -s /usr/local/bin/make 
/usr/bin/make". I did much better, and thought I was gonna make it...

	When I got to "devel/monotone" it died that it wasn't able to find
"devel/boost-gcc3". The Makefile has a check for the OSVERSION < 500000
and if so to depend on boost-gcc3, if not then just boost. And, of course,
looking at MOVED it was changed 3/7/2007 . 

	I'll probably just end up running into this more as I go down 
the line. I guess I need to create a bunch of boot CDs, take my server
down for a while, and see if it'll run later versions of FreeBSD. I know
on a few other computers I have I can't go past 5.3 without it breaking.
