I'm not sure I understand this comment. Why was there a requirement to have today's /usr/src and /usr/obj before starting a release? (Most of my release-building experience is with 4-STABLE, but so far it seems like as long as there haven't been any major API changes or other shufflings between what's on the machine and the release being built, it Just Worked (TM).)
