Hmm.  Is `make upgrade' run before or after installworld in the following
example:
  # cd /usr/src
  # cvs update -dP
  # make buildworld
  # export DESTDIR=/alt
  # make installworld && make upgrade

In my opinion `make upgrade' is applied to the post-installworld
world under /alt, so there shouldn't be a problem.
