	I forgot to request this earlier, but could you please document bmake becoming the default system make in UPDATING and some of the associated caveats? It's particularly important to note that set -e is not being implicitly set on the command line (like before) and this is going to potentially confuse some people as cd ; ${MAKE} was the pattern that was done all over the place previously (like we discussed at YOW after BSDCan, stuff where people weren't using set -e and were using semicolons, needs to be fixed in Makefile, Makefile.inc1, etc in order for builds to not silently fail as they will today).
Thanks!
