If so, whats the proper : procedure supposed to be, other than cvsup the sources and make buildworld : (as a first step)? make buildworld has worked for me. I've been building 5.0 on -stable and 4.x stable on -current on and off for a while now. Should work for you. That's one of the big things that the cross tools targets bought us. Oh, make sure that you follow the proceedure in UPDATING exactly for kernels, or you will have lots of problems. There are problems INSTALLING a 4.x-stable on a 5.0-current system. I tried once, hit problems and punted. I don't recall what they were, but I think it was major library numbers at a start and others I didn't want to deal with.
