I installed FreeBSD 2.2.6 from CDROM (*) on my laptop.
Now I wanted to upgrade to 4.0-current

`make aout-to-elf-build' died in

/usr/src/lib/libc/sys/Makefile.inc 

because MACHINE_ARCH was not set (or set to "unknown").

Workaround: set the variable MACHINE_ARCH to i386 on the shell

    $ MACHINE_ARCH=i386; export  MACHINE_ARCH


(*) one of the 500 free CDROM which Jordan sent to Berlin ;-)
