I've tried using this section to address my original question.  I'm on 
4.10, cvsup'ed RELENG_5 to /home/mcc/src and buildworld went just fine. 
  DESTDIR is set to /home/mcc/release and MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX to 
/home/mcc/release.

The next step, make installworld, complains that I don't have a the 
required proxy user for PF on my system.  Since the goal (requirement at 
this location actually) is to not have to touch anything on the 4.10 
machine (except possibly /etc/make.conf since I know of no way to take 
one from where I cvsup my source to), I'm probably out of luck.

Besides, the step about doing a native rebuild concerned me.  The native 
machines are 486/586 class systems running off CF.  It looks like I need 
to wait for the new machine for 5.3 to arrive.

Thanks for the help,
MikeC
