   If you 'make release' then you 'make world'.

   I have hardware dedicated to make release, which does a make
world on the active system before moving on to the make release.
While the "make buildworld - make buildkernel - make installkernel" is
fine for the average admin upgrade, it doesn't help the automated
make release process (I don't want to have to reboot that box every
day at 2am in the morning).
