A binary snapshot upgrade might be less pain all-round, and you can
re-make world again once it's installed if you like.
The 'make upgrade' target seems to have rotted - people have reported
success upgrading to 3.2-REL with it, and then doing a regular 'make
world' after cvsupping to -stable, but doing it at once doesn't seem to
work lately.
