It's not manditory, I am behind a triple T-1 connection working for an ISP, and sometimes forget about the 56k people (even though that is what I have at home :o) Try: # rm -rvf /usr/obj # cd /usr/src # make buildworld This will at least verify that something in the obj tree did not get corrupted on the first pass through.
