I have a Pentium II and a '486, both had FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE.  I cvsup'd
-stable, did a 'make buildworld / make installworld' on the PII, and that
brought the PII up to 3.4-STABLE successfully.  It took long enough tho,
that the prospect of buildworld on a '486 didn't seem appealing.  So I
figured I could just do the installworld over NFS.  I mounted /usr/src and
/usr/obj from the PII to the '486, and ran 'make installworld'.

Unfortunately, this fails on bin/rmail, claiming bin/rmail doesn't exist.
I did a 'find / -name rmail' on both machines, and both machines appear to
have the same revelant bin/rmail directories, namely, /usr/src/bin/rmail
and /bin/rmail.

So why does 'make installworld' fail on the '486?  Am I missing some
braindead obvious step? :-)
