:But it's buildworld that is failing.  The `make' program inherits ${MACHINE}
:from either the environment variable with the same name, or from
:`sysctl -n hw.machine'.  So if you try to run buildworld of HEAD on a
:pre-infrastructure-change kernel (either 1.6.x-RELEASE or 1.7.x-DEVELOPMENT),
:you'll get this error because header files in /sys/machine/pc32/include
:won't get installed into ${WORLDDEST}, because ${MACHINE} expands to i386,
:not pc32 as expected.  Doing something like
:
:  env MACHINE=pc32 make buildworld
:
:got me past this stage, but wouldn't we like to avoid having to do this
:in the next release?

    I think the solution here is to simply detect the situation and have
    the buildworld abort with a message telling the user what they have
    to do.  I'll do it right now.
