These events happen infrequently enough that > burning one FreeBSD_version rev on it isn't a huge deal. >=20 This is only to optimize buildworld times, you know, and IIRC, every __FreeBSD_version bump should be documented in the Porter's Handbook. What will I put there? These events also happen more frequently than it seems at a glance; if, for example, during the next couple of days we find a bug in groff (in the code), and fix it, I'd need to bump __FreeBSD_version again and increment one in Makefile.inc1. I'd like to avoid this.
