Good for you... but what have I done wrong - this is the question I'm begging
to know. I started with a fresh install of 2.2.1 from CD, created a cvsup
download of src-all, and did make world. There was NO /usr/obj directory
before the make. I've included my CVSUP file at the end of the email incase
that's where I'm screwing up.

There is with my 2.2 tree :-)

I realize that. I just wanted to see if the error popped up that way. Turns
out it doesn't. I ended up just doing a "make -k world" and manually 
building tcl afterwards. Note that I did
	cd /usr/src/include
	make
	make install

on the second try before running make world. This *should* be updating my
/usr/include , no? At any rate, this is done by 'make world' long before
my tcl build problems occur with a 'make includes'. So I didn't delete /sys, 
and my includes aren't hosed.

Well, whatever the case, when I cvsup down the tree "over top" of the 2.2.1
Release, I get a bad tree. This also happened before when I was 
cvsupp'ing down the releases from my old August '96 SNAP. I don't know why.
Perhaps something to do with dependencies out of date... I did delete them
all. I guess it's just weird, or maybe satan is in my computer.

I'm going to play around some more and see if I can't figure this out better.
I'll post if I discover anything.
