: The dependancy occurs when you have your source tree in a different

: usr/src/sys.  If your source tree is in /usr/home/foo/src, and you set
: /sys -> usr/home/foo/src/sys.  After a make installkernel the /sys
: link now points to the wrong location.

setenv SYSDIR /usr/home/foo/src/sys

is the usual way that you build modules not against the installed /sys
link.  However, this is a good point.  I've been using this method for
so long that I'd fogotten about the dependency.
