Shouldn't make cleanworld take care of that?  When I upgraded, that was
all I did and I had no problems.   

Speaking of notes, the make cleanworld hasn't made it into UPDATING,
which it probably should.  (I remember one late night install on a test
box, where rather than CD'ing into /usr/obj, I'd cd'd into /usr, and was 
using a prompt that didn't automatically give me my working directory.
I was a bit upset when I then typed

cd /usr/src

and got the response that there was no such file or directory, then
typed pwd to see that I was in /usr.  Oops.  :)

While on the subject, I wonder if it would be worth adding to UPDATING,
the ln -s aj /etc/malloc.conf to turn off malloc debugging.   


Thanks

there's just the hard way.
