I thought the obfuscation was intentional as very few people should be doing a 'make world' without a custom DESTDIR these days. Certainly people new to FreeBSD shouldn't be doing it; only those with the command hardwired into their brains. We've had buildworld/installworld since 2.2.5 (or 2.2.6) I think as I've only had to do a 'make world' once to go from 2.2.2 to 2.2.6. :) -- John Baldwin
