There is a problem with 'upgrade' anyway.  I think there are a few problems
in buildworld too.  They get their host vs. target stuff mixed up.  It
builds a set of tools to run under the current kernel, includes and libraries,
then uses those tools to "cross" compile the new stuff and isn't meant to run
them but in a few cases it does.  ncurses is one example as bde points out
to me often.  'make upgrade's use of -DNOTOOLS etc is another thing that
needs to be fixed.

Cheers,
