To late. My inpatients got the better of me, but I did realize after I
started a new checkout of the src, that an update would be quicker. Thanks
for adding the other nugget with the make -j -DNO_CLEAN. I had absolutely
no idea I could do that. I'll let it buildworld overnight and then hit it
with a buildkernel KERNCONF=COLDSTEEL in the morning.

Thanks
